I have a 92 351W (uses same block as 302) and I would be fairly certain yours is like mine in that there are two bolts on the oil pan on the front of the motor that screw up into the bottom of the timing cover that will need to be removed to get the timing cover off. I looked at a picture of an oil pan for your year and I can see those bolt holes. I have seen people do cam replacements without removing the motor so you will be able to reach those bolts w/o needing to remove the motor
