If it was me I would be getting sump off and getting it back on. Easier replacing a bolt rather than a whole engine

You cant get to it by just pulling the sump pan off or I would.

You might be able to get at it with just sump worst case you need to drop upper sump divider thing off as well

There looks to be the main oil pan and the another which is above the cross member and also bolts to the gearbox (its an auto) can this second section be removed in with the engine in the car?

Yes, you can but you will need to lift the engine a couple or three inches to get enough clearance :y
