Removing the hogs head can be a bear. Some depends on whether it has a starter or not. The top will come off but other things may need to be removed or moved out of the way to get it off & back on again. I don't know if it will allow much disassembly though. This is one persons procedure. There are likely others too.

My motto is : if you don't have time to do it right, when will you find time to do it over?

I re-read your post, and if I am understanding your problem correctly, the engine-trans will have to come out and the trans will have to be disassembled at least the rear plate that holds the 3 fingers will have to be removed.
