I've not attacked the vanagon transmission, but if it's anything like the 70's buses transmission, I had a friend show me how to get it out with a finishing nail and some pliers. He tapped a hole in the old seal in the softer section of the ribbing with the sharp end of the nail and then bent the nail close to the head end to a right angle (90 degree) and forced it into the hole. Using the pliers he grabbed the other end of the nail and pulled until it loosened the seal enough to pry out. Steven 91 Westy
