Default Easy job to clean EGR ports on 6th gen?

How hard is it to clean the EGR ports on 99 v6? I have to take off the intake manifold, right?

Is there a step by step write up of this anywhere? Is it real tough for a noob like me to do?

Also, should I drill the holes bigger as well, or just clean them?

Just clean them. Taking off the IM is really easy. there are like 6 bolts and two nuts on the manifold and then four on the TB you have to take off and then it comes right out. Very simple.

Would I need to clean them if the kit was already installed? The dealer think it might just need a new valve?

Any more details on the procedure would be great, remember, im retarded, i can change brakes, thats about it.
