2015 AMG GTs gearbox leaking drain tube housing at rear of gearbox. Internal radial seal leaking requires replacement.
Seal does not come on it’s own
Requires new gearbox
Any help appreciated

Are you asking for donations???

Seriously, have you approached an independent auto-box repair/rebuild shop?

Out of warranty?
If so, bad luck

I'd be inclined to get a second opinion with something so expensive to replace.

Sorry to hear that. Time to find a transmission specialist.

They sorted the issue for American owners. Isn’t that typical.

Who diagnosed the problem of the internal radial seal needing replacement and that they are not available as an individual item requiring a replacement gearbox? That suggests specialist knowledge. Was it an MB dealer?

Yes it was a MB dealer

Just using Google, seals are available in the market for AMG GTS transmissions and there are loads of gearbox/transmission specialists in Kent so I would find one near you and seek independent advice, as suggested by others. 'Technicians' in dealers are not trained to fix problems in a cost effective way. They just take the easy way out by replacing the whole thing, leaving you with a huge bill and equally huge profit for them.
