Removal of the roll pin is not a big deal. Put the car in third gear or reverse, I forget which, buy a 3/16" pilot punch (it has a little knob on the end to center it in the roll pin) and whack it with an appropriately sized hammer.

It's dripping now, not pouring, and slowly builds up on the sump guard which has to be removed to do this.... so I guess we'll try without draining, and have a pan to collect what drops out.. the fun part is always the roll pin removal..

If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

You will need to drain the oil.
