I just used the plastic locator that was on the pump holding the gears in place.

Samj89 is referring to the tool that makes sure the seal is knocked in 1mm below the surface of the oil pump .

Cheers for your replies I may use the plastic bit from the oil pump and get a 1mm shim the same size as the crank seal and push it into place like that not sure though if the plasttic bit is bigger that the crank seal
