Default Water Pump Info

Was going to change my Lwr. Radiator hose....what a surprise...the fitting on the water pump to install the radiator hose on is all white...eaten up with corrosion....should I replace the water pump...although its been working fine...or what...never seen this much aluminum corrosion before...

How hard...and what do you have to do a water pump change???? This is an 1984 vette.....
