Another thing to consider is which engine you have. The older engines have a rope type seal that will in the long run require the engine to be removed and probably torn down . The crankshaft bearing cradle I think has to be removed to replace this seal. If the oil pan and rear main bearing cap were easy to remove as in 55 chevys, this would be do-able. I don't think even the oil pan can be removed without pulling the engine on the older engines. It stopped me in my tracks last year. I think a belly pan under the engine with a drain line would serve better and be easier. My Audi TT had one for streamlining purposes and it didn't leak! Otherwise I keep a 2004 Busch / Cheney reelection poster under the car. Works fine!!
