Two tips:
1- As soon as you take the timing chain off, wrap a long zip tie or piece of chord around it so if it somehow falls into the case you can pull it back out easily
2- Place a rag in the case opening once you have the jug out, little things can fall in there unnoticed very easily!
3- Use a hose clamp to compress the rings and get them in the jug without damaging them, using your fingers is a nightmare!

Fingers work great for me, oil the mess out of the piston and jug, work it from the bottom to the top.

Once you have the hose clamp tightened down, you place the top of the piston in the jug, then just tap on the jug till it works its way down, pushing the hose clamp on down off the rings as they slide inside. Here's a video on a different engine, but if gives you the idea: I did do it with my fingers the first time, and it took me almost 20 minutes (probably because I was nervous about messing them up).
