Valve Stem Seal Tool ?

Anyone have any suggestions for an on the car stem seal tool ? I was able to get half of them off using a few various things, but figured there has to bet a better way for the other half.

Thanks,
Ernie

I was referring to the seals, and some of the tools I saw for sale seemed like they would not work under the cowl. Thanks for the suggestions though. I was a little leary about using pliers and doing more damage than good.
