900 oil pan gasket replacement 900 1993

Hello,

I just dropped the oil pan on my '93 945T to replace the oil pan gasket.
I was surprised at how little the pan dropped down, even tho I removed the little runner block from under it that was bolted to the crossmember.
I have several qustions:
-Is it possible to install a one-piece oil pan gasket by sliding it under the oil pump inside the pan? I already have one, and now I realize thy make 3 piece ones to make installation easier.
-Is it possible to unbolt the oilpump, let it drop into the pan, and the remove the pan? I've done this with other cars. Would be nice to inspect the bearings.
-If not, can I unbolt the motor mounts and lift the engine by the bellhousing and drop the pan that way?
Thanks in advance,

Csaba
'93 945Ti, euro headlights, ipd sways
