It's fairly simple. There should be one air line plugged into the valve cover that just pulls out, then you remove the bolts holding the valve cover on. Scrap off the old gasket being sure not to get a bunch of little pieces into the valves or valve springs, put the new gasket and the valve cover back on. The bolts should be tightened in a pattern similar to a tire but be sure you do not tighten them much. Just snug the bolts up evenly. Re-insert the air line and your good to go.

Some general purpose things to remember with this are:
Take great care in removing the valve covers, loosen the bolts gradually to release tension and to not risk warping the cover or damaging the existing gasket anymore than necessary
Make sure that when apart both surfaces are totally clean as left over gasket material will prevent a new gasket from sealing resulting in oil leaks
Tension the bolts when reinstalling following a three step tightening/torqueing process to ensure that the cover seats evenly on the head and that the gasket seals correctly.
I've done this several times to my 5.2 liter V-8 and I'm sure the steps are similar but from what I understand not all gaskets are the same and different engines have different things that must be removed prior to getting to the valve cover bolts.
