Any tips for installing LA timing cover seal?

Buy or rent a kit like the one here. I use a piece of water pipe myself, or a socket if you have 3/4" set...

I bought a set like this 5-6 years ago at harbor freight and never opened the box yet. There were days during my millwright days that I put 15-20 seals in so I just grab them, square them up, and smack it on the edge while holding it square with my left hand. I kinda bought them thinking I would Chuck them up in my lathe and make bushing drivers out of them for powerglide work.
