You need to ease it over a bit at a time, it will stretch, lubricate it with some brake fluid and get it the correct way round and on the correct end. The rubber seal looks in bad condition in the photo, you should have a new one. In fact if it's from the master cylinder It would be wiser to buy the complete cylinder new, for safety.

I agree - it appears ruined to me ! Have you been using engine oil in the brake master cylinder ????
