Mark,
Easiest way to remove the engine....
Undo the 2 bolts holding the radiator support underneath, undo & drain rad hoses, disconnect headlight wiring at terminal blocks L&R, undo 3 bolts on each side holding rear of front fenders, get a friend to help remove the hood...it should be loose now. Now one man each grab a fender & the whole nose, fenders & headlights come of in one piece with the rad still attached.
This whole procedure will take less than an hour & now you have full access to the engine & no fear of scratching or damaging sheetmetal.
Lots of Never Seize when you reinstall will make next time much easier.
That's how I do it.
