Brandon:

You need to remove the cam gear cover, cam gear and then use a seal 
puller...(more involved than that - you MIGHT get away with not having to 
touch the water pump (tensioner for the TB)

I had to do this on the 7a motor in my CQ, I used the audi crank seal 
puller and the cam seal installer.
