Fork oil seals come in a wide variety of sizes. Please remind us what motorcycle you own.

If all else fails, you can slide the dust wiper down, and measure it. The dimensions of the dust wiper will frequently allow you to identify the dimensions of the oil seal.

Also, I suggest you try cleaning your fork oil seals. Sometimes cleaning the oil seal will remove a speck of grit, and stop the leak. You can use a "Seal Mate," a piece of 35mm film negative, a feeler gauge, or a paper business card to clean the oil seal.
