Default Front Crank Seal Install....N62

Doing a rebuild on my 545i. Getting ready to install the new front crank seal in the front timing cover and noticed that there is no special tool advertised for this. My "guess" is that it's greased and then pressed/tapped by hand into place.

Anyone install one? What did you do/use?

Thanks
