The seal is a standard industrial seal. I can't remember the size but it's usually printed on the seal (three numbers). It should be possible to get them a bearing-supplier or maybe at some mechanical workshop.

Then I add the springs (progressive springs from WIRT) and close the fork.

Oil level (BMW-springs):
Left: 410ml (470ml after disassembly)
Right: 440ml (470ml after disassembly)

The standard tool-kit contains all the tools to remove the inner-leg, it's a very simple construction.
If you change the seal without moving the inner-leg the risk of ruining the seal (or inner-leg) is huge!
