Crankhaft Oil Seal

Hi Guys
I am about to do a Timing chain on my R56 Mini One, and the kit came with a new Crankshaft Oil Seal.
I am very glad I noticed its a PTFE type seal, I would have had a problem if I had not noticed, it must not be installed with any oil on the seal or collar.
Here is a link to explain why

And it has to normalize for 4 hours before you start the car.
