RMS Questions Factory installed 8.9mm

I'm in the process of closing up my IMS, RMS, Clutch and I took measurements of the factory RMS. This is a 2000 3.2 S and it has the updated seal installed with square markings and is not leaking but I figure for the few bucks I'll just change it again and hope not to create an issue.

Here is a picture of my calipers showing the installed depth of 8.9mm.

When I install the new seal should I really be going to 13mm that seams very extreme to me on this engine I'm thinking the factory 11mm but I'm not sure if the first RMS was at that depth. I have not pulled the seal yet to view the crank surface for marks.



The little notch in this picture is my main reason for replacing but as you can see no oil leaks I've only used a shop vac to cleanup the rear of the case no other cleaners or wiping has been done.
