Default 2010 ls3 oil pan removal in car

Can this be done? I’ve got rings stuck on one cylinder apparently. Had a guy with a bent exhaust valve run the car 40k miles now the valve is sealed it’s shoving everything down the oil pan so worst case I’m gonna try pulling the head and oil pan and knocking that cylinder out.

If your careful you should be able to get the piston out the top with the heads off and oil pan off. You have boltss holding the front cover and read cover to thr oil pan itself take those loose loosen the battery cable clamps on the cover also. Then u should be able to unhook one motor mount and lean the motor to one side and pull pan off. I have had one car that I didnt loosen motor mount on and got the pan off still but made it harder because of the pickup sorry hope this helps
