You know, I was wondering about this. (not directly at OP)

I see a lot of people jacking on the oil pan to lift engine for Engine mount replacement.

Not sure if a 1x2 or such wood pieces really distribute force that much. (but videos show it's fine)

I understand using just the jack pad alone is not a good idea or would I ever attempt.

So is that a safe statement regarding pushing up on oil pan? ( to lift engine only, not entire car)
