If that seal is the only one leaking, I'd avoid taking apart the pump, much less remove the charge pump. Unless the bearing there is suspect...if that's the cause of the bad seal. The Sunstrand pump surgery requires very clean enviroment. To avoid this, You can pull an old oil seal without removal of the charge pump by using a couple sheet metal or wood screws. You need to drive the screws into body of seal and then pry on screws to lift the seal. To start a hole, I use a sharp point awl to punch a hole into the metal body of the old seal and drive the screws in. No drilling. No metal shards. Make sure you clean the area before the procedure.
