So I'm replacing a leaky axle seal on my truck and I'm having a helluva time getting the new seal to go in. There's a small notch (for lack of a better word) that looks to be peened in the edge of the sealing surface (see attached pic)–is this supposed to be there? Do I need to somehow smooth it out so the new seal will go in? Thanks in advance for any help!
