The formal procedure involves remove ALOT (I repeat... ALOT) of stuff including the subframe. It's not that there is anything difficult but the issue comes in when you have techs that could give a crap about putting it all back together 100% correctly including using new bolts where called for and torquing everything correctly.
If they are really calling for 9 hours for this job dealers will take the long road. It seems to me that the pan can be removed without taking much off at all if you are careful.
