yup, you can do the oil filter housing gasket, and replace that mickey mouse flange at same time with the aluminum one.
Look in the DIY section, and also watch the uTube vid a few times, read posts for a list of tools/bits you will need (extension, eTorx bit, etc)
I siphoned coolant from the reservoir before starting, which saves time and mess. But you might want to do a coolant refresh since you might not know the car's history . . .
Seems like the PO didn't do preventative maintenance
