very gently use a wide standard screw driver and wedge it into the oil pan gasket (rubber and might be hard to move) when you get the gasket pushed back some twist it gently and slightly and it should loosen up the oil pan to pull it off...i often use a small pry bar that has a very wide tip...you are replacing the oil pan gasket anyway (they are cheap)
