I have never installed the engine seals. I don't have tire lube, but bet it works nicely.

On the big fat long rubber pieces that fit in the rocker panels, the factory says to use glycerin. I have used KY and that works well.

I also drop the strips in hot water for 15 minutes to soften them up. No problems - still a pain - but just grunt work.

The long strips push in from one end in my scenario. The more I think about you don't have that option in the engine compartment so the interior tool k mentions may be the trick.
