oil pan removal
i have tried many different searches for the answer to my question to no avail. So, here it is: Is there any way to remove the oil pan without taking apart the steering? I have had it off the block before, but had to drop the diff and remove all the steering components (PITA to put back together) just to get the pan out. Any suggestions? All I need to do is re-apply some silicone (or something better?) 'cause it freakin leaks thanks though.

Awsome thats a relief. the first time i took the pan off i bent the windage tray a little, but hamered it back flat a didn't think it would matter, but obvioulsy it did. Thanks for the help. Are there gaskets between the pan and block? I never got any with my rebuld kit, and assumed you were supposed to just silicone (or RTV) it on there? Thanks again.
by the way, it is the 3vze.
