This is an easy job, maybe a 4 or 5, but there are 2 areas to be especially careful. The starter gear cover and gear come of easily enough, as does the main cover.
The areas to pay particular attention are the routing of the alternator cover wires. If you don't have a manual, take pictures of the inside of the cover. The other area of concern is using the correct gasket sealant, not too much, but just enough so it doesn't squish out - remember, what squishes out also squishes inward.
Make sure the gasket surfaces are clean, and that you have sealant around the molded rubber grommet that the wires come through.
