OP, it's not a "ceiling washer", it a friction washer to aid in keeping the dampener from spinning as it's a interference fit to the crank.

The dampener does not have a seal associated with it. The seal is installed into the front cover.

Reset. It's a $1500 car. No need to waste money or breath. Use it or not does not matter.

Balancer is definitely junk

It's a $1500 car, put it back on, use some 20w-50 and call it a day. Be real. Your not concerned with a 200k timing chain/gears or tensioner that the spring typically ends up in the oil pan as <50k miles - why worry about this? Maybe a small leak down the road, walmart oil is cheap.

Thanks for the fast reply what about putting the new harmonic balancer on I know everyone says not to bang on it with a hammer but if I get it somewhat close to the factory bolt be used to pull it back on.

You really should pick up a GM manual for this work as well as using the search feature of this forum.
