Gasket removal help

[Elimax]

Hi all:

I'm in the process of re-building an area of my 1986 Yamaha FZX700, and am having lots of trouble removing a VERY stubborn gasket.

The gasket is located vertically within the engine oil pan in an area that is nearly impossible to reach by hand, and this gasket has likely never been touched before now.

My question is this: Is there any spray-on or wipe-on solution that I could douse the area with to often up the gasket to ease its removal?

Thanks!

I've heard this stuff works pretty good. http://www.all-spec.com/products/80645.html?gclid=CJ756suUjq0CFQjd4AodV3fkmg

Could also consider this.

Thinks "I wonder if it works on women as well?"
