Oil leaks and questions

My 97 CSE has 157K on it and it's leaking oil more and more. It's to the point now to where I'm going to take some action. I think it's the oil pan gasket, but it could be the rear main seal also. It's leaking from the front and back portions of the engine. What is the best way to tackle this job? Should I pull the engine or just pull the transmission for the rear main seal and jack the engine up and replace the oil pan gasket while I have the transmission out? It's an automatic transmission and I've never had it out. I replaced the front main seal last spring when I was replacing the tensioner so I know that's good to go. Any thoughts?
