The front cover is a good ten hours more work on a sedan with a subpan. On SLs with solid pans the whole subframe must be removed to remove the pan to disconnect teh oil pump chain which is captive in the cover.
The AC compressor alone is a pain to remove and likeeverything else it is bolted to the cover.
Take a look at this picture, everything that isn't in the picture takes a while. Notice the home made engine support.
