Default Repair manual?

Hi I'm new here and to the Lexus brand. I have a 96 Lexus es300 and I absolutely love. My car has a oil leak in the oil pan gaskets. I want to change it my self but I recently found out it has a upper oil pan as well. I went to a local part store and found out haynes doesn't make a manual for the 96 Lexus. I don't want to pay the price for a factory repair manual if I don't have to (60 bucks). Can I get a 96 camry haynes manual,just for engine repairs? Thanks in advance for any help with this matter!

Use the ES300 one for the body, and the Camry one for the engine.

If in a pinch get the Haynes Camry for 1996, almost identical to our cars. Just ignore the "install in reverse order" also if you need specific torque specs, Haynes customer service will acommodate you if you bought the book.
