New guy needs help! Need Pics of Rear Main

Hey folks,

I'm still a bit new on this forum, but I need to ask a favor. I recently lost an engine in my plow truck (1986 Chevy 350 V8). I found a good deal on a used 350 from another truck of the same year, but when I got it home I realized the rear main was leaking. I've swapped engines out before, but haven't actually gotten inside one yet.

I've done some searching and I see that the procedure is to pull the oil plan, drop the main cap and oil pick up...then drive the seal out. I have the main cap pulled, but I'm afraid to start driving (what I think is) the seal out. Does anyone have any pics of this procedure that they can post up? That would help me a ton. I think I have a 1 piece seal, but I'm not totally sure.

Thanks much!
