Rear main seal removal

Okay, so everything is off to finally replace this seal. 2 questions came to my mind though.

1, I see some bolts around the cover that holds the rear main seal. Does this need to come off in order to get the old seal out and the new one in?

2, if that cover does need to come off, if the car still has all its oil in it, is it going to leak a lot of it out? I don't know if the oil level is below that cover or not, and I'd like to know if it needs to be drained.
