Default M18 rear oil seal (behind pto)

Okay, I'm pretty sure I need to pull this new seal and trash it but I'll ask anyway.

I was installing a new oil seal behind the pto and drove it in too far and not straight. The manual says to drive it in 5/32" +3/64" -1/64". So if my math is correct that should be a max depth of 0.203". The 2nd pic is where I ended up at. I'm worried the 0.287 (at the 10:00 position) could possibly be covering the hole feeding the rest of the engine of oil but I don't remember where the passage is. Do I just drive it in straight or just pull it out and replace?

IIRR the hole on the bottom is a drain back hole to the oil sump.
if you want to remove the cover you can possibly push the seal back out without damaging it.
The seal is set in a bit to allow the centering nubs on the PTO clutch a place to set.
If the seal is not in enough,(not your case) the PTO when installed, will push the seal in to the correct distance.

Thanks George, I appreciate all your help. I didn't look in there to see how far back the drain hole was so I looked on E-Pay and stole this pic. You are correct again. I think I will just square it up in the bore and leave it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
