SKF 9815 in outer gearbox cover

Good Day,
I’m attempting to cure a kick start shaft leak in my gearbox by adding an SKF 9815 seal. I have read that RTV is needed to seal the ring. I have noticed that the seal does not want to seat. Does the outer gearbox cover have to be modified to accept the new lipped ring seal?
Thanks!

My bike came with a 9815 seal and there is no leak. I think the bushing was pressed in after the seal was put in.

I pressed it in. Hopefully this is the end of this pesky leak for a while. Thanks!

Further update:
Upon further inspection after pressing in the new seal behind the bush, it appeared that the seal was not seated as nice as I would have liked. I removed the bush and seal, and started over again with a new seal. This time I really heated the area around the cover with heat gun for about 4 - 5 min. With the area well heated, the seal dropped right into place, as well as the bush. I then gave the bush a little press for good measure. I put a little smear of red rubber grease on the interior of the bush, and I also covered the splined kick start shaft with tape before I reinstalled the cover. Hope I have it this time.

Cheers,
