It is located at the front of the engine behind the Black timing covers and crank pulley.

The radiator, altenator/aircon belts, front crank pulley, timing covers and timing belt, need to removed to be able to remove the oil pump.

So you will need to fit the pump, seal and o-ring, fit a new timing belt(and time it up of course) and then all the fiddly parts back on again.

I would suggest changing the oil, oil filter and antifreeze while you are at it.

It can be done at home but you will need to download a workshop manual and have some tools and a dry place to work.

10 or 11mm pump will be more than fine.
