oil pan

Just about to remove the oil pan. Flywheel housing, exhaust manifold are removed. Aft housing is still in place.

Part 1 is drop the pan with the engine upright (on an engine stand) to contain whatever is in there (oil is drained but I'm sure there's a bit more). Can anyone give me an idea how heavy that will be? Anything special I need to know?

Part 2 is clean up the pan, repaint.

Part 3 is turn the engine upside down to inspect and install a new gasket and old pan with new screws.

Any advice about the above and what to look for gratefully received!

Thanks,
Marty
