How to clean Monsoon CD player lens

The problem I'm trying to solve is the 'ERR' message when I insert a CD. I'm not a fan of lens cleaning kits, so I took the radio out and disconnected the CD player from the radio. I'm having a difficult time trying to locate the actual lens. From the rear panel perspective, I can see through the opening in the metal case to see the clamping mechanism in the center, and what appears to be the laser pickup assembly in 'front' and slightly to the right of the clamp. Will this metal enclosure come apart further, or do I need to go through the case openings?
Does this look like the lens assembly?
