Hello everyone. If someone would be kind enough to assist with translating a seal it would be greatly appreciated. It is in tge form of a scholar's rock and possibly made of Skoushan Tianhuang Stone. Your time is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The legend of the seal refers to the Ming dynasty, whereas the artist's name carved on its side is Wu Changshuo, a late Qing painter/calligrapher/antiquarian, and seal carver. This seal was not carved by him. Here are two examples in which he uses the carving knife to inscribe his name:
