I purchased a Greenlee 1346 bandsaw a while back. I dropped the saw backwards and bent the input shaft. I tore it down and straightened the shaft and replaced the two oil seals.
There is virtually no information on the innards of this gearbox so I thought I'd put some pictures and bearing/seal info for anybody in the future.
The input shaft is .625 with a 3/16 key.
Input seal: SKF 7661 (inner seal lip is very tight and needs worked around the seal face, chamfer the front of the sealing surface if you can)
Output shaft: .875 with 3/16 woodruff key.
Output shaft seal: Timkin 471646
The input shaft with worm gear rides in two tapered bearings. It is retained in the housing with an internal circlip under the input shaft seal.
Input bearings: Timkin M12649 (qty.2)
Output bearings: Timkin LM119 49 (qty. 2)
Housing gasket .025 thick.
The manual says to use 10w-40 motor oil. I used 15w40 diesel oil.
The Greenlee 346 may use the same gearbox.
Hope this helps someone.
