oil seal help for 94 f350 dana 60

I have oil pouring out of my front left side axle tube. I planned to reseal the whole thing tomorrow but the parts store is full of idiots and their computer sucks so bad I won't even get started.
What I got was 2 spindle bearing and seal sets. Those look right.
one pinion seal that looks right
2 hub wheel bearing seals that look right
and one "axle seal that looks weird. It's a 2 piece seal that I think is supposed to be the inner axle seal. Not sure if it's the right one at all.

Don't the Dana 60 front ends have two axle tube seals? One inner and one outer? I don't have it apart yet but it sure looks like there is an outer one on there.

Does anyone have a part number for the correct inner and outer seals that I can take to the parts store in the morning. This is my only working vehicle right now and I really need to get everything right before I tear it down tomorrow.

Here's a list of what the knuckleheads at oreilleys gave me.

National seal 710530 ( says forsheda 52148 on the seal itself) they say this one is my leaking axle seal.

SBK-5 spindle seal and bearing set. Got two of those.

national 415960 The idiots call these axle seals too but I don't think so. They look like hub or wheel bearing seals. I hope they are my wheel bearing seals because I need those too.
There are threads on forums all over the place with people saying this seal is the culprit for the leaking left axle tube. Is this the axle or hub seal?

And still, what about outer axle tube seals. Sure looks like it's got some.

You may need to pick up a set of sleeves to seal them. I posted on that a while ago. let me see if I can find them.

I won't need a sleeve. I have a lathe. I love that thing. I usually just run a fast bead with the mig over the groove while turning it real slow in the chuck and then regrind it. It will never groove again with the wire I use.

Did you know on those inner 2 piece seals it's not even a problem. With the outer it's just a dirt and water seal so a little groove won't hurt it at all. That one is supposed to go in backwards too.
