It shouldn't be too hard, as long as you have a few tools &/or are prepared to buy a couple tools.
Get 4 car stands & jack the car high. Pull out the d'shaft, disconnect the speedo cable, & start removing bolts from the box to the motor. Get in the car & pull out the centre console shifter surround & pull the shifter out of the box (never done a W50 so don't know exactly what's involved). Get the rest of the box to engine bolts from the top, & once you're sure they're ALL off, jump back under with someone else to help.
Pull off the clutch slave cylinder & tuck it out of the way too, then unbolt the crossmember.
Don't worry, the box ain't gonna fall of the motor, so you don't have to rush. You can either both start pulling & tugging until the box comes loose & drop it down manually, which can be tricky, or I managed to sut up a jack at the front of my box & another inside above the shifter hole with a loop of rope around the back of the box.
Once you have the box out, unblt the clutch & assess the flywheel & repeat the above steps in the reverse order.
Or you could just go get a Haynes manual or the like......
