I have a set of brackets (nothing more than an angled plate welded on each end of a ~6" piece of tubing with holes in one plate) that fit the motor mounts and let you set a motor on the ground level. Some will say that setting an idi on the pan is a bad idea due to the potential to collapse the pan against the oil pickup, which is reasonable, but can be avoided if you're careful. If you block under the rear end of the pan (avoiding the drain plug) it should be fine. Only real concern is dropping it directly on the drain plug IMHO.
Even without the brackets, you can pretty easily support one of these motors on blocks and do everything down to the short block. Once you have a short block then it's light enough that pretty much any engine stand should be fine. All the stands I've seen have enough adjustment they'll bolt up.
Even without a stand it's not the hard to do with the motor on the ground - strip it to a short block sitting on the pan/blocks, then lift and set on the rear surface, pull pan, pistons, etc, then support the crank and remove - block under the flywheel end or a line to a hoist will work, over even by hand if you're careful. Same thing in reverse to reassemble. More of a pain, yes, and you' have to be careful to keep thing clean, but certainly doable.
