Speedo Cable Leak Empty Speedo Cable Leak

I think my bullet where my speedo cable attaches is leaking. I'm not sure what I need to order to replace it and stop the leak. Are the bullet's universal to install every TH350 or do I need to search for a specific one? Below are some pics and a couple of videos and a previous thread on the issue as well.

Can I replace without taking the housing off?

Ive heard guys replacing the speedo cable seal.  The bullet on my manual trans just has an O ring on it.  
Maybe research this...

Plenty of info about that lead for a TH350.

easy fix, take out the small bolt & retaining clip shown in your pic. Grab a drain pan and the bullet pulls right out. from the looks of the pic, the seal inside the bullet is leaking. remove it with a pick or something & replace. Should be easy to find a new seal.

Thanks guys, it was an easy fix. I installed a new bullet with orings but am going to order a set of new orings to keep on hand. Seems like a good thing to keep an extra one on hand for next time.
