The guide includes at least first and second components and a coupling mechanism connecting the first and second components to one another. The first component has a first bone engagement surface and the second component has a second bone engagement surface, the first and second bone engagement surfaces anatomically matching corresponding first and second portions of the surface of the bone. At least one of the first and second components defines at least one alignment formation.
