I have a selection of brass drifts for driving in/out bearing races etc. Basically brass round stock in various diameters and lengths. It's generally softer than what your driving in so the tool deforms before the driven part. Most I picked up as scrap in my travels over the years. I have a couple of good hardwood blocks for starting and centering, and as said sockets that match the diameter work good for seal/race driving tools.
