Default Oil pan gasket ?s

I searched a little bit on it but didn't get any detail.

2002 camaro z. It has a slight oil leak but enough to make the drivetrain kinda messy. I'm wondering while I'm doing heads n cam and motor mounts what is the best way for to change this gasket ? I'm hoping it will not be too much of a pain. My plan kinda was to cherry pick it up while doing mounts and try it that way but wanting to know what has anyone else done. Pictures would be awesome. Thanks

That will do it.. Since your taking the mounts out anyway, just cafefully lift it up far enough to drop the pan.. The stock gasket is riveted to the pan, so be ready for that.

Should be plenty of room since the heads will be off to go up with. Now that I'm thinking about how far will the transmission allow it to go up. Will I be finding myself pulling the transmission?
