It is like $130-$150 for a new one, and around $60 for a remanufactured one.
You can do it but it takes a good amount of work to do it. I caould help though I have not done one.

It is a piece of cake and i'm sure Matt (loudsho) can figure it out after a few attemtps..... . Just make sure that you get the felpro water pump gasket kit with new O-rings. If you don't replace those O-rings it will leak worse. Also make sure you smooth the block down real nice where the smaller O-ring pushes up against it, otherwise that will leak also.
