Fan is an aftermarket flex fan. Moves a lot of air, but must howl like the devil above about 3,000 rpm.

Merry Christmas.
You have a good start, but remove the radiator next and the long valve cover bolts near the brake booster for tipping/lifting the engine over the front crossmember. When leaving...

There has been plenty of metal shavings in the oil from all that damage. I'm on the "pull the engine" wagon and remove the pan and inspect all the bearings. If the crank isn't scored but there is...
