Well, came to fit the oil seal in the retainer and it does not want to fit - it clearly is the right size as it looks as it will fit the old retainer just fine when I tentatively part fitted it!
I dont want to risk damaging the seal trying to make it fit so I am sending the retainer back to DS for replacement.
That's put me back a few days now - I am going to return the DS retainer ring part in the hope that a replacement one is from the new production batch.
