Yes, you have to remove the steering linkage under the oil pan and the flywheel cover. Also I think you have to turn the engine so you have maximum clearance from the crankshaft. You should then be able to remove all the oil pan bolts and work out pan.

Oil pan gasket replace 99 Chevy S-10 2.2 liter?

Yes you can change it without pulling the motor out but its kinda rough. (I would not pay a dealer $870 change it). Another tip is don't used the quark gaskets that everyone will try to give you. Summit racing has a after market rubber gasket that works, trust me. Remember don't take a quark gasket.

After beginning to produce white smoke from the exhaust a 98 Bonneville dies and would not start again what could be causing this?

White smoke is coolant in the cylinders. Died and won't restart cause the spark plugs are shorted with coolant. If you keep trying to start it without fixing it you could bend a rod! Most likely it is a failed intake manifold gasket or intake plenum gasket or the intake plenum itself. Don't drive the car cause if it is the plenum leaking coolant into the engine it can fill a cylinder with coolant and do major damage when you try to start it. No way to know for sure which of the three it is without pulling the plenum. If you're pulling that you might as well change the intake manifold gasket too. Could be a bad head gasket
