Is this for an LS or GSR?
On my GSR, you have to remove the flywheel cover to access 3 of the oil pan bolts. I don't know if it is the same for an LS.
The hardest part is trying to keep the gasket on the pan as you mate it to the block. You don't need any sealant, just torque the nuts to spec (9 ft/lbs) in a crosswise fashion and it will seal itself.
