Default Lycoming Prop Gov Removal

Hello, I recieved my brand new Lycoming 0360 the other day for my 8a. It came set up for a constant speed prop, but I will use a fixed pitch. I punched a hole in the crank seal as instructed and replaced the front plug. The question is what parts and pieces are removed from the rear where the governor is located? The blow out diagram shows a rod and some other parts. What goes and what stays? Also, I suppose the oil line must be removed and the hole pluged. Is there a special Lycoming plug needed? Seems like I'm plowing old ground. Is all this stuff written down somewhere? Hope to hear from you smart guys, Bill
