BWAHAHAHAHAHA
I got my old seal out, and new seal in in 30 MINUTES while snowing, when it was 8*F outside, AT 11:00PM.
Hasn't leaked a drop since.
Did I mention I never removed the oil pan or read the FSM?
The secret:
1. Inspect removed tube for holes, pitting, etc. Replace if necessary.
2. Oil on tube, oil on seal, oil on oilpan hole
3. Put seal on tube
4. Put 2ft-3ft long PVC pipe over tube, so that it presses on the seal's lip. Be sure to adequately deburr PVC prior to doing this.
5. Start tube-seal-PVC assembly into hole
6. Hit PVC pipe with dead blow hammer.
7. Gloat.
Also, I have used a small amount of RTV on the drain flange(that contacts the turbo) without any leaks or ill effects.
