Changing valve stem seals on a M103

What is involved in changing the valve stem seals on a M103 engine? My primary question is this: Does the camshaft have to be removed or can it be accomplished by simply removing the rocker arms as is done on the v8's. I have changed the seals on the single overhead cam V8 (420sel's) a few times and it is no big deal.
