    It is not that awkward a job to do if the exhaust bolts are not seized and rusted. Remove the exhaust, if you can't get the bolts loose stop right there. If you can drop the exhaust drain the engine oil, remove the 20 or so oil pan bolts. I don't belive that engine uses an oil pan gasket. Clean the surfaces well with a razor blade. I like a Permatex product called "The Right Stuff" it comes in a tube and sets up well a a gasket.
