Default Engine removal ?'s

Where is the best place to bolt your chains from your hoist to? I have the engine tore down to the short block. I was thinking the larger bolt holes for the heads.

The head bolts are the way to go. Like an idiot when I pulled my heads I threw those bolts away and had to put a bolt in a water pump hole and one in a bell housing hole. It worked fine but the head bolts are the way to go.
