In fact I have the same job to do on mine as the bearing is noisy and thinking I may have to remove the sump to get the b*gger out!
I use a Nippy sump and simply remove it before the engine is hoisted out. Likewise drop the engine back in then re-fit the sump in situ - you may find you have to lift the front end a little to get it in. I would only caution you to have a good look around afterwards and make sure you have made a good joint, as it's easy to mess it up & not notice.
