Here is the kit I got from AB when I fixed my coolant leak from the front cover over the winter. Will get you everything you are looking for.

I havent tackled it yet, my postponed his trip to Sept. I will update once I do.

Breaking the bolt on the crank pulley first is good advice though.

If you have a good air impact wrench the bolt should come out without much fuss. Mine stinks, so I had to use a breaker bar persuaded with a five pound hand sledge. Not the classiest solution but it worked.
