02' x type water pump replacement

Does any body have any pictures or a DIY of the replacement of a water pump for a 02' 3.0l x type ?
How many hours does it pay/take?

I'm going to be helping out a friend this weekend but have never even seen under the hood of one of this vehicles before....Thanks for the help in advance!

Are there any tricks to the gasket

such as any kinds of spray adhesive or anything?

The only seal you will need is the gasket that comes with the new pump. The removable pump is held to the waterpump housing by about 10 or 12 small (8mm?) bolts. After you remove these (and of course the belt/pulley), it will pry off of the housing. Clean the surface, and put the new one on.
