Wrong part. Wheel bearing is one piece. As here, https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/wheel-bearing-front-timken-ftc1507kf-p-27881.html You will need at least a 20 ton press to fit it.

Depends on how hot the old bearing has been. I left mine for sometime before I changed it,big mistake. I used a 60 ton press and things got a bit twitchy as the gauge went above 40. Don't forget to remove the circlip.

They do the Timken bearing but they also do (did?!) a replacement hub with the Timken bearing for under £200. Very helpful and friendly on the phone. Part fitted to a 1998 GEMS with no issues and smooth as silk.

Had to chisel mine off....never saw such a mess. Bearings chewed up and unrecognizable. Was on my too do list. Next time it will become priority one. Parts are cheap and its an easy job... When the bearings aren't destroyed. Had the worst time even getting the wheel and brake drum off. Big hammers and a small hydraulic jack to push from the back.
