@survival it is soldered to the board. Since iFixit does not yet have a specific guide for this use something like this video to disassemble it. The you will have to desolder the old port and solder a new one like this to the board. Here is the bad part. The USB-C port is difficult to solder since the pins are also on the underside. Unless you have experience and the right tools for this, consider getting someone else to solder it for you.

While you work on your laptop, take lots of pictures. Once you are done with it, take those pictures and create a guide for iFixit. That will help the next person that has a device with the same issues as you do. It's easy and fun to create these guides. https://ifixit.com/Guide/new The iFixit community will appreciate this.
