Usual rear prop/front prop off, disconnect slave cylinder pipe, electrical connectors, take 2 10mm bolts under gaitor inside, remove crossmember and let gearbox hang by the engine to get more access to the top of the box the and the pin you are talking about get a big lever bar and gently lever box away and you will get enough room to slip the pin out and other lever is held on with a c shape clip, multiplug near front at top for xyz sensor which needs relearnt aswell when finished.
Worst part can be the bolts and brackets holding turbo crossover pipe to bell housing, this needs removed as it covers very top belly bolts which needs a long 1/2 inch extension bar or double up shorter ones. And there is a bracket from the turbo to bell housing aswell which can be a pain i leave exhaust alone and bend bracket away if bolts holding it to exhaust won't come out. Clutch can be a pain aswell to bleed when done, a pressure bleeder helps.
Just a case of unbolting what you see in the way and couple transmission jacks and genlty easy it back.
