4RT Drive Chain Tensioner Bushing Replacement?

Has anyone successfully replaced the drive chain tensioner bushings?  Mine is a 2018 and appears to have a solid bush but the replacements (with the correct part number) arrived as a compressed split bush.  They also look a little too large.  When I look at them, the chance of getting them installed, round and fixed in the swingarm to work with the tensioner seems small.  Has anyone done it?  Does it work?  It does not look good.

Plus one to Jonnyc21, has been crushed in shipping, the split is normal though.

You might be able to buy the bush from a local engineering/bearing supplies store or online rather than getting Honda parts if it is not a special size.
It is a glacier bush, very common part.
