Well, I decided to go ahead and try something.

I rooted around my Tools and found a bunch of what I call "Heel Bars" that I used to use to remove direct Injection type Injectors.

I found one that seemed to fit best and pried carefully. It turned out not to be very hard to pry the seal out; certainly not like the original that I had to destroy to get out.
See pics. I circled the Tool in Red that I ended up using.

I guess it helped that when I installed the Seal I used a rubber type Gasket Cement on the edges.

Once out the Spring was easy to put on and I followed advice and stuck a Socket in the Center to keep the Spring under Tension so I would not have a repeat of the issue.
