NP242 front output seal replacement questions

I can't find a good guide for replacing this seal, but somewhere I read online that you might have to take the case apart to smash the seal out from behind?

Anyone have any experience with this? Also is it safe to use a breaker bar on the yoke nut with the case in 4 part-time to stop it from spinning?

The FSM says to place the TC in 4 Low to remove the yoke nut.
