Pretty simple, there are 6 bolts total on the pump. Just be sure to drain coolant out of the radiator first and be sure when you pull the pump off not to get any coolant on the Opti or you will have more problems.
I think when you're stock with all the emmision BS it's a little more than 30 minutes. I recall having to remove the air pump and bracket and you have to get underneath to do it. But that was over 15 years ago.
FYI, try not to get any coolant on the optispark distributor! Stuff rags around it.
