I watched a fellow change the oil pump in a mid '60's Pontiac is about
45 minutes once. This was a huge flat rate job as R&R of engine was
required per the book. Car had -0- oil pressure, might have a junk
short block? Do you change oil pump? Rebuild engine? Car was about 5
years old.
The guy who wrote the book should have seen this operation
1) Car on lift drop oil.
2) Air chiseler a 5" 3 sided hole in pan, bend it down.
3) R&R oil pump
4) Bend flat back up, Clean it real good, use alcohol as final rinse.
Braze the resulting 3 corner cut pan.
5) Refill oil.
That mechanic had a very satisfied customer!

Don't confuse me with facts. Makes about as much sense as the original
idea which is the whole point. Or, pernt as they say in Weehawken.
