A search here doesn't show a DIY for it, and a look at the corresponding diagram on realoem makes it look like a bit of a bear:

Have you done it yet?

Might be a bit late but if you've had your VC gasket replaced once and it's already leaking again I would bet your tech reused the bolts. You are supposed to use new bolts. Since it was a warranty repair, if you can show they did not do it right the first time you should be able to get them do it again.
