I was told that on this washer it would be best to throw it away because it is not worth the time, money and repair. what is a estimate of the time and difficulty to replace the seal. Can you also give me a part number and the cost of the seal?

It could be the Hub & seal or Triple lip seal/hub k depending on the series number of the washer. It would probably take a few hours to do.
