If you are going to end up installing the engine with the gearbox attached, be VERY careful when you align the spline on the drive shaft with the universal joint. When the alignment is just right, they can come together very quickly. DON'T have your fingers in there. Use long nosed pliers or screw drivers, anything but fingers.
