Not too hard if you can get under the truck. It's screwed into the block next to the oil filter and it goes a lot easier with the special socket.

I just changed mine a month or so ago. If you dont have the goofy socket, you can use a crescent wrench as well. I was too cheap to buy a socket I will never use again, so I just improvised, and it went smoothly. Good luck to ya!

That's just condensation. Very common, nothing's wrong.

Autozone may have that socket as part of their tool loaner program.
