don't forget to take out the clutch fork pivot pin from behind the stater motor, apart from that its an easy job, just take your time.

once starter is out you will see a pug which needs allen key to remove. remove then screw cambelt cover bolt into pin which sits behind and pull out.

Might be worth having a good look at all the Projects forum as most involve engine removal including mine - DIY Budget Rebuild. But yes the clutch fork is the sticking point if you don't know what to do with it.
