I did the clutch on the Blue Boxster that I sold to a friend this spring, While the transmission was off I pulled the flywheel, then the IMSB flange (AFTER having locked the timing) and verified the IMSB. It turned smoothly and there was no play. I then pulled the seal off the bearing so that it would get direct oil lubrication. There was no grease in the bearing when I removed the seal. Put it all back together and it has been running fine since.
My logic and pictures here in post #60
sick of ims bearing
