K-Y Jelly is an excellent lubricant for assembling rubber parts. Silicone grease works well, too.

solvent based wax and grease remover is the best lube for rubber.

That seal look odd - asymetrical to the original ones I have here.  Never seen the bulge on the left of the pic.  It looks a bit rough too - cracks in the groove?  that being said, the new one I had here was really stiff vs the original one out of the tank, to the point that I had gloves on and in the trunk, pushing hard and I'm not a skinny guy.  I ended up using my original.     :Twocents:
