As I understand it, pulling the starter is a tough job, filled with possible issues... It would be neat to at least see the pictorial for how you reinstall it!
I'll pass that one to a OM617a owner - but check out the DIY section - number 21 says "Assembly is reverse of removal" (http://www.peachparts.com/Wikka/OM617StarterMotor)

Without the turbo fitted to the car it is a piece of cake... sorry turbo owners... but you just lean on in there hold it with one hand and screw in the bolts...
