1.
RH side (although oil pump is missing);
LH side;
2. Yes although it is possible to remove one side with the bike leaning over so as not to spill the oil.
3. Yes OR use threebond.
4. Yes, but if you're careful it will be OK. Left side is the easiest as you only need to remove the gear pedal, clutch slave cylinder and the bolts, then 'extract' the cover with an extractor tool which can be cheaply bought or easily made. If you do remove the LH side it would be worth checking the flywheel nut torque.
RH side is more complicated as you will need to remove the clutch assembly which requires a clutch holding tool and large torque wrench to refit.
