None worth a damn I'm sure, but since you might be in a hurry...
Sometimes you have to reach inside the loose pan and remove the oil pump. That's all that's needed to do mine anyway, I don't have to raise the engine or anything like that.
Haynes has gotten worser and worser;) but have they gotten sooo bad they don't tell you what you have to do to remove an oil pan? :(

Remove the transmission, flywheel, and separator plate, then raise the engine and it will slide out the back.
