Valley pan gasket change on N62?

[garrett.fell]

I am not finding much information on this topic at all. No DIY's. Nothing on YouTube etc.

How big of a job is this?

I am suspecting that that's the source of my coolant leak but I cannot confirm it. I pressure tested the system over the weekend (16 psi) and it's pushing coolant over and around the outside of the bellhousing on the passengers side of the car. I've looked all over but cannot see the point if origination at this time I've peeked all over with an inspection camera. I just can't see it with enough clarity to confirm anything.

It doesn't seem to do this when the engine is warm - so the leak must be pretty slight. I took it for a 20 mile run and no drips at all. However I get a pretty steady drip-drip-drip when I pressure test cold.
