I kinda got to this thread late, but here's my input. Keith is correct is using the starter bolt and the spare threaded holes on the passenger front side of the block, and yeas you can leave all engine accessories on the engine to remove it out the bottom of the car. BUT, use a floor jack under the tranny to help balance the assembly front to rear while dropping the engine.

Ken, the eye pads are common on almost all engines, including foreign cars. They are the stamped steel plates with large holes in them the factory uses to initially install the engines on the production lines. It takes too long to remove them, so they leave them in place. On my V-6 there is one front driver's side and rear pax side.
