White Knight parts ID is usually very good if you follow this link and use the full 0312 *** ***** code John.

As you can see there are 39 varients of the 44A model.
Did someone stand on his tiny tail at 12:00, or trip over the mains cable, site stopped working for about five minutes?
Looking at these pictures the dryer fan motor assembly does have a look of the Bosch/Smeg made machines?
Removing the seal from either side shouldn’t cause a leak on any type of machine if it is then refitted correctly. 😉
Commercial code is 033537 but doubt if that will throw anything up for you Dave?.
This machine must be quite old now, looking at the parts breakdown it is hard to be sure but it could either be a Smeg, or worse still a Siltal made appliance, both of which are a nightmare to work on, especially the Siltal. Either way over 95{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of the parts are obsolete. 🙁
Difficult to tell from the diagrams but it is possible the front panel is removable.??
If you can remove the front panel then releasing the seal lip from the front panel is the correct way to proceed.
There is a fully comprehensive article on Heat Pump Dryers in the excellent Help & Advice pages which can be found at the top of our home page. As you will see the first article was written over 4 years ago so the technology is not as you say ‘fairly new’. A thorough read of our article will highlight the fact that the high price is not the only issue with heat pump dryers.
Hopefully Aaron will by now have taken the advice of the long standing ‘trade’ member who has taken the trouble to reply, Don has been on the retail side of domestic white goods for 30 years or more as well as running a repair business. 😉
One drawback that I can think of is the different mains wiring and voltages used in other countries. I would suspect the various import/export rules and regulations would be a minefield as well, even before Brexit. 😉
Unless of course you intend to source your machines in these ‘other’ countries as well?
