Evaporator Core needs replacing

The flange is bent on the pipe at the connection into the evaporator core on my 1997 F 150, so I guess I have to remove the core and put a new one in and I need info about this. From what I have heard & seen, this is quite a job....so do I try it myself or take it to a high price AC man? Any advise will be good
Thx

How did the pipe bend?
Might as well service to entire system at an AC shop. JMO.
Might have to be nice to your better half. (dinner or roses) it works for me.
