Remove oil pan while transmission is out

Hello all
I tried searching but no luck. I have a stock 91 RS with a 305. I removed the transmission to replace the flywheel and some seals and noticed my oil pan is leaking.
Since the transmission is out, does the oil pan come out easily or do I still need to raise the engine? Doing some research ahead of time.
Just noticed the pan has some dents. Do you guys recommend a certain brand of oil pan as a replacement?
Thanks in advance.

Engine needs to be raise and with the transmission out it could get exciting, Be sure to remove the distributor cap if you lift the motor from it's mounts.
