Let me tell what I learned the hard was a year ago pulling the engine out of my 450, which is almost identical mechanically to an M: It will be a LOT easier if you bring some help, and two, take you some 5/8 and 3/4 inch all thread with nuts and washers to go with them, plus a good hack saw. This will enable you to make bolts that you can screw into the sides of the front bolster, the side rails, and the bellhousing/frame of the tractor. No, you don't need to remove the clutch, but you do need some really good jack stands and heavy lumber to support the frame/bellhousing of the tractor when you are removing the engine, and yes, you really should remove the front bolster, and it is very heavy and thus dangerous, especially because it also holds up the rest of the tractor.
