Well... the good advice worked perfectly. Only drawback was the oil drain bolt had probably never been removed due to its bruising location, it ended up being a 1 inch, 6 point box wrench, nothing else would work and every other bolt on the engine is metric, go figure. Anyway, after chasing over the entire county and buying 15 different sized wrenches we met with success this morning. With access to the drain sump it only took a few tries with the pick-up tool to get the kinked hose out and the oil changed. So, I'm complying with Boason's guidance from here on out!

Thanks again for the advice.
