I have ordered my seals for the pump, does fluid need to be drained or the level lowered to do this?

Nope, it's way above the level, unless you pull the suction line off from the rear.

You may want to stuff something in the hole where the pump is removed from and cover the ends of the pipes.

Just to keep crud out…

There are probably o-rings between the pipes and the pump so don’t let them get lost.
