I've torn lots of them apart, Over 50 actually and these are just the ones I received in one piece. A lot of them just break when the release bearing itself breaks off its plastic mount, That's if the seals lasted long enough for this to happen.
If you flushed it out with any kind of solvent you most likely got in on/in the release bearing also which will wash out the grease in it causing the bearing to lock up which spins the entire housing breaking/melting it off the front of the CSC.
Save yourself the trouble and NEVER reuse it, Unless of course you like tow trucks and pulling your trans for fun..
