Its not hard, but especially the first time, be prepared to have it take at least a whole day.
Front dress on the side with the blown gasket has to come off, then the intake, etc, then the head.

Take a bunch of photos as you go, and put all the bolts and small parts in plastic sandwich bags and label them. Clean as you go.
