The engine is supposed to be removed and placed on an engine stand for this kind of service.

However, it is possible to change the oil pan inside the engine compartment, but you'll need to remove the transaxle first.
And that would be more difficult than just removing the engine.

So you'll have to take your pic. If you need me to walk you through this procedure, write back and I'll be happy to help.
