I am trying to remove the bracket which holds the back of the oil pan because it is preventing the oil pan from dropping straight down. Should I try to jack up the transmission and remove it through the rear of the cross-member?

I figured it would be easier if I just attached the process on how to remove the oil pan from the manual.

Let me know if you still have questions and we can dig into it further. Thanks

Thank you.
I was missing the two 10 mm bolts that go through the side.
