Yes, you have to remove the complete drive. Are you using the OEM manual?
If so, what part don't you understand? Page numbers help.

the drive is completly removed from the boat and on a stand.. im using the oem manual but it doesnt say if the lower has to be separated from the intermediate to replace the fork

Look at the manual, How do you think you are going to remove the tube that the fork pivots on without removing the lower unit? (page 82, item 2)

would you by chance know of a complete seal kit?

There is no complete seal kit, one for the upper, one for the lower. There are no seals in the intermediate.
