I've done it, and IMHO it was just a teeny weeny little less of a job than
pulling the engine.

No matter how you twist and bend the engine, all the same parts has to come off,
no matter if the engine sits in the car or on the ground, so it is a question of
how much you like to twist and bend your fingers and talk bad language.
If you wanna keep your fingers straight and nice, but don't mind a bit of extra
work, drop the engine! But if you're like me and like to take the shortest path
into the problem, let the engine stay and make new, funny shapes with your
fingers.
