How tough is it to replace valve cover gaskets?

Both sides are leaking, dos'nt look like a lot of room to work. Any tricks besides having "small" hands?...LOL
Also I don't have rear wheel drive, fuse is in, where's a rear drive servo? have looked under the car on the tailstock but I'm not seeing it...HELP!!!

Check the "How-To Documents", I believe there is a write up on replacing them.
