I think the oscillating tool is quite a bit faster and cleaner... this was on the first regulator replacement I participated on. I do know it was less effort... I saw my friend, who had done a ton of these, struggling. I think the blade I used is called a scraper. An advantage is you get it underneath the seal and press on the metal and can keep going around until you hit an uneven section on the door.
It was warm enough when we reinstalled in the summer Southwest that we didn't have to use a heat gun, lol
