John,

If your front engine mount rubber has deteriorated badly you could jack up the front of the engine and then support it so that there is sufficient clearance between the pan and the drag-link. The crank pulley could even be sitting on the nut of the steering crank pivot if the engine mount is sufficiently deteriorated thus preventing the engine from turning. The jacking could be done by undoing the bolts for the engine mount where it bolts to the chassis, jacking up the engine then inserting wooden blocks under the engine mount "feet" to hold it sufficiently high. You should then be able to drop and wiggle the pan out.
