Leaking Slave Cylinder

My 1995 F150 with the 4.9 and M50D is leaking fluid from the slave cylinder. How hard is it to replace the slave cylinder? I am also going to replace the clutch at the same time. How hard is it to remove the hydraulic line that goes into the slave cylinder? Is there any special tools need to replace the slave cylinder? I have replace a clutch before so i should be good on that part. Any help is welcomed, Thanks Fred

Ok, guys I got the clutch hydraulic line out tonight after I made my own removal tool. I made it from a washer, that I cut a piece out of. And I finished it off with a screw driver. I had to pull on the tube quite hard to get it out. My dad and I got the transmission, clutch and flywheel out. Getting the new parts tomorrow and start putting it back together
