73 911T camshaft housing seal repalcement

Is there any trick to replacing the camshaft housing seal,for instance how far should it be inserted? Should it go in dry? Should the cam shaft be installed before the seal is replaced? Is it a difficult seal to install, ie should I freeze it before inserting it?
The seal I am referring to is the one which is similar to the pulley seal but is located on the front left side of the engine in the camshaft housing where the camshaft pulley drives the mfi pump. I’ll try to include a picture. Have found very little info on replacing this seal. A am assuming it’ll be similar to the pulley and the rms. Was thinking trying to push or pull the old seal out,carefully, then tap the new seal in with a large socket as a driver, trying to keep the seal straight.
