You will have to pull the pan. Then the two screws in the bottom half the four screws in the top half and the two screws that go from the top half down into the bottom half and then it should come off. Dig the old felt out of each half. After you clean it up good hold the two halfs together as they are on the block and see how much warped they are where they fit together. If much warage I would get new, because is a bad place for leak when you put it back together. Stuff as much new felt as you can in the groove as you can. I understand from some on this forum that some new felts are to long. When I was doing this therty years ago the felt was the right length and we used it all. After you stuf the felt in the grooves but some oil on it and reinstall on block. Tighten the two screws that go down through to the bottom half first, but after you have all screws started. Use a good gasket sealer on all parts. Hope this helps.
