Question 2000 RL EGR Valve cleaning (P0401)

Got a 2000 RL about 2 months ago, almost immediately got the P0401 code and am looking to take off the EGR valve and clean it out myself. This would be the first time I would be working under the hood but I figured that this was an easy enough task even for a complete beginner.

However, the EGR valve seems quite hard to reach and is buried back behind the engine. Is there anywhere I can find some instructions on how to remove the EGR valve?

If there is another thread that is identical or similar to this one I apologize, I only joined this forum for help with this repair and couldn't find one myself.
