Drill two small holes across from eachother in the seal and screw in some sheet metel screws, then grap the screws with visegrips and yank the seal out.

You can try and pry it out with a big screwdriver or a crow bar even (I have done both) or you can get the seal removal tool and use a slide hammer.
