Water pump replacement 200 1989

Yesterday I noticed the sweet sweet smell of antifreeze as I pulled away from a stop light, got home and looked under the hood and it appears that the water pump is leaking out of the front seal. The bearing seems fine (no play when I tried to wiggle the fan and what not. I purchased a Bosch replacement pump at my local Pep Boys (new, not remanufactured) and plan on installing it tomorrow evening.

Just wondering if there are tips or quirks that I'll need to know about to ensure a speedy recovery for my ailing brick.
