Before replacing that seal, if it is just grit or stuff causing the leakage try using a seal mate to clean out anything between the seal and the fork tube. I find this works about 50% of the time. Basically it’s a length of plastic about the thickness of old 35mm film, shaped to ‘hook’ any junk as you insert it between the seal and tube (remove the dust seal first) and sweep it in a motion around the tube and drawing it out as you do so. Google ‘seal,ate’ and you will see how it works. You can make your own real easy.
