300TD Suspension pump rebuild question

I purchased the seals for the suspension pump as mine was leaking.

I see 2 things that I am not comfortable with.

First the bronze sleeve on the engine side. There is an passage hole that is about 50% exposed, leaving me to wonder if the sleeve had been pressed properly.

Next, nothing that I read makes clear to me, how far in the double seal should be pressed, again on the engine side. Should it be flush with the housing or pressed in deeper?

Thanks
Don
