they normally have 1 or 2 bolts holding them to a mounting bracket and a plastic clip on wire connector. disconnect the battery remove and unplug the old regulator mount and plug in the new regulator
No, try this first, take the bolt out, use copper spacers to bolt size threads to fit and tighten it slowly until you feel it may not go anymore without forcing it. Mark a 1/2 white line on the bolt connecting it to 1/2 line on crankcase wall. Run the bike and if still leaks tighten it 1/8 at a time until it stop leaking or reach 1/2 turn from tightening start. Or use pipe thread tapes (normally white and very flimsy) near bolt top (abt 5mmfrom bolt head), wrap 2-3 times, put bolt back in again and tighten, ensuring tape goes in between thread and crank body tightly. That can stop the leaking.
Check the compression before tearing it down - the cylinder with the water will probably come up low. It's very likely that the head gasket has failed. As a result (or the cause) it's also likely that the head has warped, it'll need skimming before rebuilding the motor
