Question Engine Hoist - where to attach?

The attached picture shows the engine hoist should attach just above the thermostat.

Granted, there is a hole, where a chain can attach - but that seems like the center of much aluminum, and I don't want to strip the bolts.

I'm planning on replacing the oil pan gaskets and while under there, replace the Engine Mounts.

Your thoughts and suggestions are appreciated.

Car: 1995 E420
