the old water pump r and r trick on a 2.2 4cyl 200 1992

hi kit g,arty b , sages, and other malefactors- havent been on the board for a period. been too busy with a plethora of jobs. about to start on water pump replacement. appears to be leaking about 2 quarts a week . pump wet . have replaced many water pumps on old fords, dodges and chevies. eyeballing the 240 pump i see 4 potential troubles. any tricks in getting the old one off. seems leaks on reinstallation likely at the nozzle press up/lever up connection to the cylinder head may occur- should sealant be used. back of pump connects to a metal coolant line to the back and runs to the back of the engine. is the pipe connection to the pump back just a press in fit. what about sealant there too. figure job should take 2hrs. looking at ac delco, gates, and gmb. recall board used to recommend hepu. bet art and kit g have done this job 5 times. your wisdom is appreciated. thanks tons oldduke
