A block of wood and a jack under the motor will lift it up.

I'm sure you could also rig up a fulcrum with a 4x4 block and a 2x4, or something similar. The engine isn't that heavy and should move fairly easily.

used something very helpful called my dad

had to loosen off a few other bolts as the engine refused to budge . also one slight problem I have come across is that the bolt sticks through quite far and rubs on the radiator hose so I am making up a spacer to move it out a few mm .
