now is the time when you wish you had an aftermarket k-member
You can suspend motor in the engine bay using a crane and remove k-member.. or you can pull the motor and leave the k-member. I would either do A or B and not have to work around things.

i had my pan off to clean it when i did h/c etc. it wasnt to bad, the engine was unbolted and jacked up about 3 inches(intake manifold off) it was easy to get out after that. took the gasket off cleaned it and the pan. lined up the gasket with the pan - then rivited it back to the pan.. looks as it was never touched.
