Thumbs down Steering Box Leak

I have a 1976 F-150 4X4 with Power Steering. The steering box has a leak on the top, on the part that the adjustment screw is on. Is it difficult to change this gasket. I beleive it may be under spring pressure but dont' know too much about it so any info will be appreciated.

Thanks
