Don't worry about the seal it's already in the filter.
I found chain filter wrench's useless, all you need to do is find some way of gripping the filter then turning anti-clockwise (as your facing it on the bike), I think I borrowed a strap filter wrench in the end but anything to grip it and turn is all you need to do.
If the chain wrench is slipping try wrapping some duck tape around the filter a few times then see if the wrench fits better.
