You are referring to the upper oil pan correct? Seems like a tedious job. Here are some basic steps that I found:
-Remove and separate engine and transmission as described under Engine.
-Install engine on engine stand, then remove timing belt and crankshaft timing pulley as described under Timing Belt.
-Remove oil level sensor and oil dipstick and guide.
-Remove No. 2 oil pan and oil strainer, Fig. 40.
-Remove oil pan baffle plate and No. 1 oil pan.
-Reverse procedure to install, refer to Specifications for torque values.

support the engine from the top with the type of hoist that can be placed in the engine bay. the pan doesnt have a gasket. you use RTV or toyota FIPIG for both upper and lower pans. if the car is on jack stands you can support the front k-member with a floor jack and lower it a bit to get more room.
