2015 Mustang GT busted oil pan (help)

I have looked all over the web before doing to make sure I do it correct! My wife ran over a rock in my car busted the oil pan. I have seen most pull the k-member to replace if they are going with long tubes but seen where some say there are enough clearance to just raise the motor a couple inches to get the oil oil pan out?

Which way is the easiest way to just do a oil pan swap?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not 100% sure but I think you would have to raise the engine a lot to get the pan off. Welcome to TMS by the way

I was reading I think I need around 3 inches of clearance. I wasn't sure if getting that much was possible. So many mixed post and where its a new car I don't guess anyone has had that problem yet.
