Cool - what can one use in place of the special tool to hold the pulley? Good call on the reverse thread for the fan clutch I would not have known that and the TIS doesn't say anything about it. I listed the two gaskets here though I am going to buy the pump off ebay anyway:
- Water Pump Gasket (11 51 1 731 462)
- Water Pipe to Water Pump O-Ring (11 53 1 710 048)
Is the stock Pump manufactured by Graf or Meyle? The one on eBay is Meyle.

As for the parts, sounds good except there are 2 o-rings you need, different sizes for different pipes. (as shown in the ebay link)
