I notice that in the photo, the jack is on the oil pan. I have read that is a no-no. Is it ok in this situation since the jack is just supporting the engine? Would you get the same result if you placed the jack at the rear of the engine behind the oil pan?

I'm kind of wondering about the oil pan lift placement.

Staff?

When I did it, I placed the jack right in front of the oil pan, on the solid looking engine seam(ish) part.
