    before u take off the belt, crack the bolts on the pump pulley.
    take off belt
    remove pully on pump
    undo the retaining bolts
    lever it off with a screw driver but be careful
    scrape the surface area with a razor blade till clean
    put on gasket
    then reversal

    be mindful it may be handy to drain the radiator and to use a light layer of gasket goo on each side of the gasket

    sure you know but just make sure you get all the old gasket bits left behind. best way is to get a razor blade, some carby cleanert and rag and some emery paper
