Last time I rebuilt some S calipers (few years back) I am pretty sure the order I used was :

- main hydraulic seal, fitted using red rubber grease

- put the piston in about half way

- the fit dust seal and put retaining ring in

 

Again I used red rubber grease on the inside edge of the dust seal, but tried to keep off the part which goes against the retaining ring. Getting this retaining ring in square and straight is the tricky bit...
