Hub seals early D1 to JA032850

Hi silly question maybe but I bought a set of 4 discs and pads and they came with 4 hub seals. So, before dismantling and getting it wrong, would the seals in the kit be the inner or outer ones? LR inner ones FTC4785 @ 6.54 ea) cost less than the outers (FRC8222 32.02 ea) so my money would be on the inners. Am I right? Can the outers be removed to clean and inspect the bearings and replaced?

inners id think which are a grease seal so have no garter spring unlike the outers which are oil seal to keep oil from wheel bearings

It’s very easy to damaged the outer seals when removing them but it can be done if very careful,
I brought some new ones just in case, one needed replacing the other was ok,
