190E 2.6 engine removal guide?
Does one exist?
I need to know where the suggested lift points on the engine are, and if it's safe to pull the engine and transmission as one whole unit.

It changes all the time
You might find a removal procedure in the W201 manual or the M103 manual, but I don't see it being necessary. It's kinda like carving an elephant out of a block of ice. You chip away all the pieces that don't look like an elephant. The same goes for removung an engine. You separate all the connections between the engine and chassis. MBs have never really been set up for engine tranny pull. In the hundreds I've done, I've always separated them. Don't forget the torque converter bolts. Also always turn an MB engine clockwise as you face the front of the engine.
Good luck
