I think my original old-type seal lasted a long time too. The only reason it leaked again within a year or less of replacement is that some genius (supposed transmission specialists) who I took it to, replaced it with the new type seal into the old flange. That clearly does not work. Had they replaced it with old-type seal I might have been fine but in the end took it to my local specialist who replaced with new flange and seal.
So watch out for that, if you take it to an independent who doesn't know. Make sure tell them "old type seal please"
