So I took my transmission apart to swap out the layshaft bearing and then reassembled.

Of course I had to put the cover on and off several times due to a being a dummy. In one of these iterations I must have nicked the seal as it has a very slow seeping of gearbox fluid (Redline).

I think the kickstart seal can be picked out, and the replacement driven in, without disturbing the outer cover, but it wouldn't be the first time my thinking needed adjustment.
 
The Mk3 kickstart seal is fitted/removed from the oustside so it may be possible to get the seal off without removing the cover?
