OMP Leak

So, my car has been sitting for a long time not running. I finnaly got it started and it runs great but when i got done with my test run i noticed that there was quite a bit of oil leakage under my car. I pulled off the front undercarrige cover and theres a nice puddle on that right below the OMP and that pump is pretty caked in oil. So, my question is, how hard of a fix is this, ive checked around on other posts and ive heard the premix theory. What usually goes wrong on these to make a fairly large puddle underneith my car and how hard is it to get these things off, i noticed that i will probrably have to remove the sway bar and such but what else does this fix entail?

thanks,
brendan

can you tell if you have a cracked omp line? they get pretty brittle over the years and like to crack. it might be that and not the omp itself.
