F10 N55 oil pan gasket DIY?

I noticed that finally, my oil pan gasket needs to be changed. I searched around and left and right for DIY instructions but I haven’t found any. Just looking under the car, it appears that I might have to remove the rack and pinion. Can someone shed some light on DIY instructions please?

Here are the instructions to service it. It is easier for RWD because you don’t have to deal with front axles and diff.

Sump gasket on a xDrive looks to be a world of pain...
