No, not difficult.

The three Allen screws on the outside are metric, not Imperial.

The threads are M3.5-0.6, too, so DO NOT make a mistake and assume they
are the much more common #6-32.

The internal screws are also M3.5-0.6.

Once the PSU is out, you can replace just the fan by cutting off the cable
which terminates in a proprietary connector on the PSU's printed circuit
board and soldering it on to the replacement fan. Insulate with
heat-shrinkable tubing.

It is a 12 volt fan of a conventional size. Just get the same size as a
replacement.
