Here is a seal labeling system I came up with. Print this
and slice it up with a paper cutter.
Put each paper label along with the associated seals in a plastic baggy
so you can get them back in the right place when everything
is cleaned up. The order of the labels is in the order of disassembly. 

I frankly think it is not necessary to put all new seals in an engine
unless they are warped or in the unlikely case they are worn beyond limits.
Also unless you are putting in new rotor housings then new seals would
be called for.

If you do put all new seals none of this is necessary of course.

I am open for suggestions. Any improvements?
