If you're redoing the seals then it'll need new fluid and need bled again.
There are two pistons so you'll need two fluid seals and two dust seals to complete the job. If you split the caliper then there is a very small rubber seal between the two halves. Apparently no one makes a proper replacement for it but I just reused mine, as others have done, and it's been fine. It doesn't wear out like the ones at the pistons as there is nothing rubbing on it. Splitting the caliper makes it much easier to do the seals although I only did it so that it was easier to paint it.
