1997 cam shaft seal replacement

The cam shaft seal at the aft of the engine has developed an oil leak. The seal is right behind the racket that holds the iginition wires module. I have checked the repair manual at the top of this site, but unable to find a cam shaft seal repolacement procedure. Any hints on how to do it. Do I need to remove the cam shaft, or just tap the plate between the seal out of place. And if yes, the the plate need to be pushed out from the inside of the engine out, or from outside in.

Would appreciate any suggestion on ho to remove nd replace without ay damage.

Thanks

I figured it out. Just have to remove valve cover, and get to it by removing the two bolts and replacing it. Very easy to do.
