Leaking front main seal

i have an 88 460 with the center bolt valve covers (if that help to identify it?)
the front seal is leaking and was wondering just how tough it is to replace. do i just have to pull the harmonic pulley or is it worse? how tough is it to pull the damper? thanks.

No big deal. Remove PS/AC belt, pulley, damper, and spacer/counterweight. If you have the seal on hand its about a 2 hour job at most. I just did mine using the sleeved version. You'll have to have a balancer puller.
