Not too hard. I had to replace the gasket on mine as well... went smooth enough. Remember where all the bolts fit. Long vs. short. There also bolts that fit through the trans housing from the rear, socket extension will be needed.
Lastly, torque all bolts to recommended setting and sequence. A LR Shop Manual will have all of the particulars, including where to apply RTV sealants.
Cheers,
