See if this helps. The one you have looks grooved. If you can get one
replace it.https://www.rockauto.com/dbphp/x,make,ford,year,1961,d,1961_ford.html
I had the yoke that went into the rear differential gouged right across the surface where the seal ran courtesy of the Ford garage. The car had been in for warranty work – ring and pinion set too tight. I discovered the leak the morning I was supposed to leave on a 3000 mile road trip.
I took emery cloth to it until the gouge was gone obviously making the part egg shaped. I drove that car another 140K miles and it never leaked a drop.
So, I’m thinking it might be okay with a little polishing. If it leaks what are you out?
