Question Oil pan removal?

Tried a google search with mixed results. I'm pretty sure I've got an oil leak from the rear of my pan, question is what is involved in swapping out the pan gasket? I just spent nearly $500 on a new rear main. I've got the car up for sale and refuse to sell it with any issues. Thanks all!

You wave to pull the motor or lift it up quite a bit and drop the pump into the pan and sneak it over the k-member.

When I did it I lifted engine and had to remove steering rack and rad. I just pulled pan out the front. If I had to do it over I would pull the engine, it would have been alot quicker.
