Are there not lifting hooks on the valve cover bolts?  If not,  perhaps
remove the head, slip chain links over the head studs and place a few heavy
washers over them to keep them from slipping past the stud nuts.  Other
possibilities if you leave the head on: a rear manifold stud and a
thermostat housing stud - or the bolt in the front plate for the generator
adjusting link.

I favor removing the head, as well as starter & generator - anything to
reduce weight and bulk - making it easier to manipulate.
