I think so. Doesn't the slave seal kit come with that seal?

Yes, that seal (#15 as follows) can be removed once the slave cylinder is removed. I had to use a mechanics mirror to be able to see into the hole, and a curved pick to pull the old seal out.
Also:
-Replace the crush washers (Item#14) on the hydraulic line to the slave.
-If you buy a rebuild kit (such as K&N), it does not include all the consumable parts (such as Item #12, 15, 17, 18).

If you're that far in, you might consider making a Custom 1-Piece Braided Stainless Steel brake line for the front/left, rather than put the stock one back... The advantages include eliminating one joint in the stock line (adjacent to right side of carb), which will reduce the tendancy to get air in the line.

OIL SEAL (28X48X9)

Alex. I am taking your advise and trying to replace OIL SEAL (28X48X9.
It seems VERY stuck. Unable to get it out. I've deformed the outer surface around the hole by trying to pry it out ... to the point that i'm sure i have no hope of using the old seal anymore. Can anyone confirm that sometimes this is difficult to remove? Perhaps it can get corroded into place?
As I've started putting some muscle into this and thinking about ways to use a hammer ... i thought i'd ask if there's something hidden behind this that i need to be aware of which might be damaged.
or perhaps i should be doing something other than prying it out?
looking for guidance on clutch slave oil seal
either something is really screwed up or i'm doing something really wrong.
photo shows a bit of corrosion around clutch slave oil seal that i am trying to remove. my attempts have visibly damaged the seal.
since this is not coming out with a little prying, i've built a tool to catch on the inner edge of the seal-hole .. held firm with vise-grips .. to which i would like to apply some rear directed "pulling" force ( a hammer applied to the vise-grip handle ). so far that's not effective either.
should I ..
1) use my homemade tool and hit it harder?
2) use a different extraction technique?
3) remove the entire clutch cover to beat it out from the other side?
4) arrange for someone to bail me out?
I've got a trip planned in a couple weeks and I'm stressed about this thing sitting in pieces at this point.

This is what I used. It still was not easy to get it in the correct position but I did get it out with this tool. I bought it at a auto parts store in their tool section. It is made for pulling seals. I looked for the company that made it but I could not find it on the tool. Good luck.

Did a quick search and found this. Looks like Sears sells them also.
