The only two tricky parts I see is to get the turbo cooling pipe banjo bolt with washers back on and the turbo intake tube with clamp properly seated and tight.
I leave the pump loose until I have gotten that banjo bolt to take threads.
It's a good idea to change the o-rings on turbo intake and bypass pipes.
If you buy after market water pumps, the o-rings are of low quality and the one at engine block flattens early and will start to leak.
The genuine pumps have a much higher quality o-rings.
Unless you have some bad corrosion, you don't need the backside and even the genuine comes without it now.
