No harm done, if it was time to replace one, it is time to replace the other, and you already have one now.
Now if you happened to removed the crankcase cover while changing the PTO seal and it had a paper gasket between it and the block, replace it with a paper gasket. If it had RTV as sealant use RTV to reseal it. Make sure you put the seal in deep enough so the centering tabs on the PTO clutch have a place to fit into. but not too deep. Use RTV sparingly if you use it. More is worse not better,---- ALWAYS!!
As it gets into oil passages and clogs them causing catatastropic engine failure.

FWIW: Kohler wrote the service manual/parts lists for their engine, no matter who purchased it and installed it in various ways.

You sure did have it right. Waiting on the rear seal which is on the front PTO side. lol

Thanks for all the help

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
