Those cars can be prone to saggy front engine mounts but usually there is still clearance enough. You will need to remove the lower bellhousing for clearance, and as you extract the pan towards the rear you may have to turn the engine a bit to get the front crank counterweights up out of the way.
You may be stunned what all you find inside. Be sure to pry the cover off of the pickup screen and have a look. Also the two compression fittings on the pickup tube will almost certainly want snugging.
