Mark,

The anode, only a few models, is integral to the hot water nipple.
Typically, it's a hex head.  

Once the pipe is removed from the nipple, the nipple unscrews just like any
other nipple, but it has a 3+ foot anode attached.

Sound bad, but it's simple.

Jack

I'll check the site as well, but if the anode is integrated into the water 
inlet, does that mean you really want threaded / flexible connections to 
the cold water supply to facilitate changing it?
