I haven't done the water pump but the AOS is pretty straight forward. Make sure you get the lower boot part as well as the upper tube part that goes from the AOS to the engine. There are two different kinds of upper tube I believe so make sure of what you're ordering. Everything is accessed from above and the only tricky part is getting at those nasty spring clamps at the bottom of the AOS. I used a variety of pliers until I found one that would work in the space allowed.

Did my AOS...took my time which was a bout 1 1/2 hours. It's just a tight area. The AOS now comes with the bottom boot bellows and o'ring, all you need is to get the J-tube. Water pump takes about 2-3 hours for the same reason. Good luck.
