Is it easy so change? How would I go about getting the old one out and new one in?

im guessing here, but mark up and remove the pulley first then you may be able to use a small pick to, well, pick tge old seal out. once out remove any dirt and crud out and put the new one in.

It's definitely in need of a change cause it's pissing out oil lol, I'm hoping to get it done this weekend, I've had someone say they have a 410 engine that he's taking out and it's had the head skimmed and a new gasket so if I can get that then I'll put the oil seals on the doner engine and use that, all depends on how much he wants for it and how soon he can get it out of his sj..
