Although I've never done it, I believe it's not too bad. You have to remove a small shroud piece that's covering the upper 2 nuts that's on top of the fan shroud at the back of the engine compartment.

Then there's 2 nuts on the bottom.

Should pop off once you remove the large oil hose.

Forget it. easier to just drop the engine....

Internal oil cooler seals may be leaking.
Here is an article that includes steps on its removal w/o dropping engine.
