Engine Removan

Does anyone know where I can find engine removal procedures for the W211 E350? I'm getting ready to replace the balance shaft. I have found pretty good instructions on the actual shaft replacement but they all start with the engine already out of the car. Mainly looking for a list of things to disconnect so I have a reference to work from so I don't miss anything while taking the engine out (or putting it back in).

Also, does anyone have the Haynes service manual for this car? I'm thinking about buying it but don't know if it has the engine removal procedures in it or not, cannot tell from online preview. I'm wondering if this book is worth buying. If you own it, please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks in advance for help!

For every vehicle in my care I have a subscription to AllDataDIY. Worth every penny of the $30 for 5 years each. A Haynes or Clymer manual doesn't have nearly the specificity of Alldata. It takes a bit of getting used to, and finding specific info can be tough until you know how the database works, but it'll tell you everything you need to know from fluid specs and torque specs to special tools and how each component interacts with the others.

Don't want 5 years? A year can be had for less.
