If your only painting, then you only need to remove the upper portion. That can be done by removing the actual intake bolts and the perimeter bolts. It's not hard, but be careful to not pull all the rope seal out.

As stated, you remove all the bolts, and it will come apart. This is why it ships with the bolts holding it together.

You need to replace the seal if you take it apart. You can make a gasket out of RTV if you know what you are doing.
