I have quite abit of play in the timing chain and am going to replace it. Unfortunately it looks like the oil pan needs to be dropped to un-bolt the pick-up tube. Is there any other way to do this?

Dexterity, and a SMALL 10mm wrench will get the bolt that holds it in out of there-- be careful not to drop it into the pan, though!
