If you haven't taken it off I would not.

It is simple to pry out the seal. While it is not as easy to clean the crank surface with the carrier in place overall I prefer not pulling the carrier.

A scratch pad and some solvent on the end of a paint stick will make short work of the crank clean up. Then simply grease up the crank and the seal and tap in the new seal.

I will have a look for the gasket, but my choice would be to not remove the carrier.
