Default Power steering pump seal replacement...is this possible?

Noticed the seal between the PS (pentosin) pump and the housing is leaking. Luckily, my J-hose isn't leaking as I originally thought, it's just the seal behind the pump. How hard is this to replace? The leak isn't bad, but there's an oil stain on the inside of the belly pan, so I figure it's better to replace it now than wait for it to fail.

I assume you confirmed it's not the x-plug on top of the ps pump?

yes, the leak is pretty clearly coming from behind the pump itself. no plug problems when running
