Hi

The seal in the photo is 1mm or so smaller than the lip it goes into

the seal is OEM corteco

is the correct and the clamping ring holds it nice and tight??

That's the seal I used and it was tight, but pushed in by hand

It’s the inner edge of the seal that does the sealing so should be fine

The inner edge seals on the ball, but if it's loose in the housing then the grease will migrate around the outside of the seal and run down.
Mine pushed in they weren't super tight, and I wiped them with silicone (after cleaning them with brake cleaner) I also swapped the retaing set screws for stainless flanged ones.

As above, seal them in.
