Piece of piece man, assuming you have access to a an engine crane?
If so take front end off (literally a matter of a few 10/13mm bolts etc)
Undo few coolant hoses, inplug wiring look behind pass headlight, take drive shafts out, few other bits like fuel lines/throttle cable etc, undo mounts and engines out dude

Need remove linkages to gearbox and drain the box ideally.

Its not a huge job, but you need to be methodical as if you miss a pipe or wire it WILL snap

I never used an engine crane. Have the car jacked and on stands as high as you can.
Drop the gearbox out, only weighs 30kg or so, not a problem.
Under the engine have some thick carpet or something then slowly lower to the ground using a jack and block of wood under the sump, lift slightly to pull jack out so you're left with the engine on the carpet.
Gently lean engine on to its back then drag out the carpet and out is the engine.
Getting it back in is a bit harder haha
