If upper oil pan seal is replaced, would it be easier to get the downpipes off the car or are they
in unrelated areas? Also, with a lift how long should removing/installing downpipes take? Thanks a lot.

When dealer did my upper pan seal, I was told they dropped the subframe
I don't think they took it completely out of the car, but dropped it a couple inches. Seems to me this would improve access to the DP area and make the job a little easier. Don't know if this would translate to less $$ for you, but doesn't hurt to ask.
