Hog Wild That is a dilemma dont think I ever saw it before,I guess it will be a good time to clean your pan and inspect your bearings. Can't quite think of the space you'll have to work in once the pan is off,and if you'll have to disturb that rear main seal. Guess you can take a thin blade on your grinder, wrap the engine up to keep grindings out,then make space to pry in. GOOD LUCK...GOOD LUCK You can fix it !!!
