Removing dents from oil pan

I use brass bars on the high side and wood on the low side. Brass is hard enough to move the steel and less likely to create a crease or tear. When that method isn't making any more progress hammer and dolly to finish the job assuming the is enough room to swong the hammer.
I think so, the slant pan has no baffles and it’s pretty open, I think I should be able to get the hammer in there.
