I considered looking for the tool or making one but decided to just try large screwdriver and hammer. You Don’t need the tool! It easily Moved with light tapping from the hammer. Obviously cover the tank and pay attention but it so easily tapped out you won’t slip up.
Hardest part was getting unit back in the tank. I also did not disconnect fuel lines or electrical, no need to.

The filter includes an o-ring. I replaced nothing else. I also used that special tool to remove and replace the top ring.

Myself same as above although I didn’t use the Harley specific tool for the cam ring. I Was just careful and used a large screwdriver and tapped it with a hammer. Took very little effort to move the ring.i don’t believe it necessary to change that larger seal unless it’s damaged or stretched.
if it becomes dislodged (which mine did) just make sure it’s fitted back in its recessed channel.

And I used a brass drift to remove/tighten the locking ring, not the HD tool. I just tap it on one tab, then the opposite one 180 degrees out of that one, and go back and forth to keep equal force on the ring.
