Yes i posted that i hated doing it too.
Take real care doing it though.
There are two blind tiny torx hose clamps holding the lower hose clamp on. They were a real treat. I hope you bought that little hose as well as the 0-ring. The new style hose is a much beefier design than the old one.
My o-ring nearly fell into the engine when I removed the box so be real careful.
I did not remove any coolant items at all. I also did not remove the power steering pump. I removed the entire mounting bracket with the pump attached and just pushed it out of the way. The fan ass'y i just lifted up and rested on the top of the engine still connected. I did remove the air box and unplugged a bunch of other stuff nearby.
My car smells a lot better now that the oil is not burning off the exhaust and I hated the oil leaks.
Good luck.
PS
I bought all of my items from FCP and the $$ was very reasonable.
The o-ring, the hose, new clamps and the pcv box was all in stock
