Where To Attach Chain For Engine Removal?

so i have a 90 tII and i am trying to pull my motor. I have a feeling that the factory attachment points for the chain have been removed. Does anyone have a picture of what i am supposed to attach my chains to? Thanks

I always bolt the chain to the lifting lug on the front iron, and the transmission mounting lug on the rear iron if the stock lift tangs are missing. I've seen some people use the water pump studs but that always freaks me out when I see how much they bend.

you dont need to be a lot of ppl, i lifted it out with 1 of my friend (hes a rx7 mechanic).
only took a chain and a 2x4..... fenders and front bumper was removed.
so we both were standing up where the fenders were.
took us 45 minutes to take out hte engine and tranny.
to put it back in, now id suggest to be 3 instead of 2.
