Depends where it is leaking. Might be able to replace the gaskets if it leak where the case fits together.

Is it a simple operation?
Do I have to take the compressor out & dismantle?

It appears that it may be more expedient to remove the compressor to make this repair. The mounting attachments would limit the amount of success in attempting the repair on the vehicle. It is also quite probable that the orings will need to be replaced also. Check the manifold attachment to determine if the leak is there and is simply migrating to the lowest point.
