Thats the exact same swivel seal that I fitted to mine last month the felt bit is a seperate item you need to order two halves for either side. When you fit the rubber swivel seal soak it in hot water first as this will make it easier to get over the end of the axle.

I'd say it is the same.

You just need to carefully pull away the felt wiper and you should be able to re use it

It should be ok if you close up that tear and fit it above centre then it wont stop you fitting it so that you can get it all built up then order some new ones. The new ones can then be split and fitted when you get them just make sure you get the split above centre

It should be OK. Note the slots aren't equally spaced so it will on go on in one of two positions. So as gp7186 says put the tear to the top.

When I did my front axle recently, I didn't need to cut the seal or wiper. You can ease them on if you get the first bit right into the joint of the casing and knuckle.

Good luck.
