Search for the steps to remove the oil pan from under the car on this forum. Theres lots of info and people who have posted step by step instructions. The MOTORS manual also has good info.

As for brands of gasket, I bought a cork gasket last summer from a larger Early Ford parts retailer and it was a horrible, unusable fit. They did end up giving a full refund, so they had good customer service. I ended up buying and using a Best Gasket brand made of modern gasket materials from Third Gen Auto. And I highly recommend that route.
