how easy is this?

Ok so I want to change the seal between the gear box and transfer box on my
wife's series 3. Do I just need the seal or are there going to be other
things I need? Are they easy to do without taking the gear box etc. out? Any
advice or help will be much appreciated.
Cheers

Why? it only transfers EP90 from one box to the other, just keep an
eye on the levels.

The "why" is that the transfer box over-fills with oil, at
the expense of the main box, risking a dry main box and all
seals/gaskets on the transfer box blowing due to "over-filling",
and then finishing up with a dry trnsfer box too! Many a good
geabox has died due to this (and many a nice driveway has
become an oil slick......)
