Do Upper Oil Pan Leak With E.Mounts?

I'm wondering how much extra time it would take to do the upper oil pan seal while I'm doing the front and rear engine mounts, or if won't save any real time at all..

Assume an acceptable, yet average competency.

doing it with the mounts doesn't really save you anything, except the removal of said mounts which is only like 15 minutes. it's a lot of work beyond that, so it's not as though you're well on your way if you've already got your mounts removed.

it's not an actual seal btw it's gray RTV so you have to scrape it clean, clean it, reapply RTV, then reinstall.
