To remove the piston seal, I used a syringe with some mineral oil in it to force the piston seal out using hydraulic pressure. Despite the lack of spring pressure, the oil poured out from the seal when using the syringe. Fluid loss was worse with the Dot 3 brake fluid.

Here's the funk that came out with it. Keep in mind that both the clutch slave cylinder and the clutch master cylinder were replaced about a year ago. I also bled the system until clean fluid came out when I replaced the set.
