It's pretty simple, the issue is the fan is in the way, so you have to remove the belts and fan to get to it then it's just 3 bolts and you have to fiddle with the short hose to leads to the hard pipe.There is a bolt under that hard pipe that you can loosen to move that hard pipe a bit to make your life a bit easier.

Instructions are in the Haynes manual. I suggest you buy one and read it.
