I just replaced the camshaft seal on one of our cars. I used an 1-1/4" die cast EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) connector to press the seal in place. The fitting goes over the camshaft, and fits inside the recess for the seal. I removed the two set screws and cut the set screw bosses off the connector. Using a longer bolt of and a large washer allowed me to nicely press the seal to the bottom of it recess. The electrical fitting cost $2.50 at a local hardware store.
