The subject transmission is a 4T 60E. My question is about this component. I think the dealer calls it a "seal". The parts guy and the technician have told me to ignore it and don't try to change it. They suggest it's extremely difficult to remove it and highly likely that you'll crack the new one when installing it. In previous years I've heeded their warnings. Now, I get my new kit and see the design has changed and don't know if I need to be concerned about this plastic seal. Anybody have experience with this?

Thanks.
