Default 97 SH - Need Advice on Steering Rack Seals

I need some help figuring out what seals these are in the pics. I was replacing my inner tie rods on my 97 SH and a seal on each end of the rack fell into pieces. You can see whats left in the photo both on the rack and on the ground. Will I have to remove/disassemble the rack to fix this? Is it part of the ps seal kit from honda?

You can get almost any seal from Honda, however replacing the seal(If i remember correctly) will require a tear down of the rack.

Thanks for the reply, that's pretty much what I was expecting to hear. Looking at the service manual it looks like the seals would be part of the cylinder end (right side) and rubber stop (left side), but I'm not 100% sure on that. I think I'm gonna punt on any rack work for now and just finish up the tie rods.
