The threads on my oil filter housing got stripped I am going to try and clean them up and correct the threads but just in case I am preparing to replace the housing...what do I have to take off to replace it any special or hidden monsters?
 
You can see three of the bolts that hold the housing on. The fourth bolt is hidden under the timing belt cover, so you have to remove the cover. To get the timing belt cover off you have to remove all accessory belts and the crank pulley. You'll also need a new filter housing gasket. Make sure everything is super clean before putting it back together, you don't want to get dirt in the oil system.
