As I'm removing the tranny to install a new clutch, is it better to remove the engine to replace seals/gaskets? I presently have no hoist or engine stand, but can access one. I'm getting a gasket set from Toyota to button this thing back up but don't know what would be easier. I know that it's alot easier to work on the engine outside of the car, but is it worth the time to pull it for that?

Honestly ..pull your whole motor and do the cam seal, crank, rear main, timing belt, water pump, etc...
Its a hell of a lot better to do it all at once with the engine out, then to have to go back in there again in a year or so.
