Could be silly, but over the course of 25 years I've read opinions against lifting the motor by its oil pan and taken them as techniques to avoid if possible. I know we're talking about old oil pans and old gaskets.

My alternatives were to lift the motor from above using the lifting eye brackets:

(from http://cleanflametrap.com/oilpan/)

And 20 years ago with this high mileage rescue after making things convenient by removing the exhaust system, from below at the downpipe support bracket.








Like I say, probably silly. Do us a favor and let us know well into the future how yours turned out.
