By the way, since this engine has two sumps. There is no special suction tool or any special procedures needed, right? May be a dumb question but I've done many oil changes on all my prior vehicles but none ever had a dual sump so just wondering.

I've changed oil on Jet Engines and it's just bunch of chip-detector plugs and a filter. Can't be that much more complicated...I hope.
As you can see from the pics, each sump has its own drain, and both can empty into the same drain pan. Very straightforward.
