Engine removal? where to attach straps

When lifting the body where do you attach the straps. I could not find any good description or pics.

I pull my intake off the engine when I pull the motor. Then I will attach a chain to the bolt holes in the intake on opposite sides, front and back.

No, no, no! That's not my web site! Wish I could take credit for that. That's one of several sites I used to gain info before I pulled mine out the bottom about a month ago.
