Rob,
the outer axle seals are black in color, and can be removed by prying them out carefully with a flat blade screw driver, With the wheel off the bike and axle removed, slide the blade end throught center axle hole, slip it under one side , make sure you push the blade in well past the lip hooking the base ring of the seal in the hub, and pry it out carefully. I have pulled mine to clean the crap out behind them several times with no problems, you can seat them square by tapping them lightly. I used a chisel upside down so the blunt end was on the seal and strike the sharp end with the hammer, you can actually push them in by hand but its hard to seat them square using your thumbs, as they seem to move alot when they finally do.
The bearing seals on mine are orange, do ot pound on them
Inspect the seal lips for wear, or defections, replace if necessary.
