I fear inducing an oil leak

I've done a 350 Chevy, but it's been like 40 years ago. I intend to watch a video on this one before I attempt it. I hope not to do anything stupid. Your input helps in this. I'd like to not remove that second plate if I can help it. I'm thinking maybe a flexible piece of plastic to hold the...
