C32 Front Main seal replacement, any comments

The best I can tell the front main seal on my C32 is leaking. I am going to have a buddy who has a shop pull the pulley and replace it. He says it should be fairly straight forward. The dealership wanted $350.00 for this repair. He said maybe 2 hours. Any helpfull comments would be great.

Thanks

The seal is pretty straightforward to install. The harmonic damper pulley bolt is EXTREMELY tight. Take caution and make sure you torque it back to spec. The seal can be tapped back in slowly.

Would an air impact be the best was to approach this front crank bolt?
