Well if you loosened a screw and you got oil out of it, you have loosened the bleeder valve. It would be wise to bleed that side before you go out for a drive in that car. You may have intorduced air into the system.

There are two large bolts that hold the caliper on. Once loosened and removed, the caliper can be removed and the pads replaced. Both are on the back side of the caliper (facing the motor) one on top and one on bottom. Do not loosen the ones for the guide assembly.

okay...all I see are three bolts and one of them (the middle one) is where the oil came from, but I did loosen the lower one and removed it and the clipers didn't seem to budge...?
