I would think you could put a small screw on opposite sides and use a crow foot (push pin tool) and a small piece of wood to leverage it out,

I just watched a video where a guy drove a large screw into the seal and as he turned the screw in, it bottomed out behind the seal and popped it out. It looks like that might work.

Take the front pump off...once off, the pump is only held together with bolts. Once you seperate the two sections, that seal can be driven out from behind just like knocking it out of a timing chain cover.
