Give some thought to replacing the rear main seal as long as you are already in there. Also, you might wanna drop the number one main bearing cap and see what the bearing looks like, it's the farthest one from the oil pump, so it'll give you a good indication of what condition the rest of them are in. Neither procedure is particularly difficult, but there are a few thing that you need to be aware of, so if you are interested, say so, and someone will get you up to speed. While the pan is off, clean it up real nice and give it a few coats of the appropriate color engine block paint while you are at it.

And remove the starter so the inspection plate comes off.
And remove the oil filter...makes geting that back bolt a bit easier and getting the inspection cover off.
I just took the two bolts out of idler arm to drop the steering linkage.
