Default Lifting points on 454 mag mpi

Got a 99 454 mag mpi that I need to pull for a drive coupler replacement. From the one pic I have I can't tell if there are any lifting points on it. Where should I be lifting this engine from?

Also, what else should I do while I have it out. Was going to do impeller, maybe gimbal, and clean up the engine compartment with some degreaser.

Thanks,
Bones

There's a hook right on the front by the Drive reservoir. You may need to bolt another one on to the back of the starboard cylinder head.

Good deal, sounds like it shouldn't be too bad, just need to find a friend with a forklift or something to stop by and pull it.
