A/C compressor leak 700

Just got a 92 740 wagon. The A/C was filled and worked fine for a week. R12 pressure is down to 20 psi. I suspect a leak, and since the compressor is soaked with oil, that it is leaking at the shaft seal. I have another compressor from my old 85 740, which feels OK. Its A/C did not work but it had a rusted out pipe. I plan to swap the compressor and try it again. If it fails, then I would try and replace the first A/C seal. Is this easy to do? Anyone done it?
