Good luck. I'd rather pull the engine. By the time you lift it high enough to clear the crank counterweights, you're 1/3 of the way there to just yanking it out.
Getting the pan off is bad enough, but then you've got to try to glue the gaskets in place while everything is dripping and oozing on you. And then slide the pan back in, without screwing up the semi-glued gaskets.
Then, you finally get it all put back together, and the engine won't start. You crushed the distributor cap 'n' rotor against the firewall when you lifted the engine. Ooops.
I'd do that job with the engine flipped-over on an engine stand, thank you very much.
