Rear Wheel Seals - Help W/ Parts

Just joined the site and am reading like mad but need help.

My '97 4Runner is the primary use rig at our house and the rear wheel seals started leaking. Long story short, I have disassembled the rear axles to replace the seals and wheel bearings. I had trouble pressing the bearing off and bent the piece that the wheel bearing sits in!

I have since talked to a shop guy that told me they just cut the retainer off and then press the bearing but I'm in a jam.

Where can I get the piece I damaged?:(

Thanks

I tried the link you provided. The illustration doesn't match the installed rear end.
If you look at the bearing case in the link, thats what I bent. The FSM made no comment on how to press it off without damage. If you look into the 4th gen proceedure they cut all retainers , and the tone ring off. Wish they'd have warned me.

Oh, I found the part number and ordered it from the dealer. $70.

Thanks all who tried to help or suffered sympathy.
