From LS1howto's oil pump replacement instructions:
Water pump removal: Now that the radiator is out you have room to work. Put a wrench on the belt tensioner, pull on it, and remove the drive belt. Unattach the 4 hoses going to the water pump (2 big, and 2 small) and then unbolt the water pump. There are 6 10mm bolts to get it off. The power steering will block access to one of the bolts so you'll need to use a box wrench or gear wrench here.
