Volvo Sea Water Pump Question

[GSB Cruiser]

I have an AQAD41A volvo diesel and my water pump has sprung a leak. I suspect that it is just the O-ring, but I am not sure how to take the pump apart. Do I need a hydraulic press to get the shaft out? Is there any other special tool needed, or can I just unbolt the pump from the engine and take it apart?

If it is same as my '95 there is a ceramic seal that can be replaced without special tools however the bearing cannot. I just replaced my whole pump because it's faster and was over ten years old.
