Do you have a Mahindra 3510 or a Mahindra 350DI?

You need to split the tractor at the clutch bell housing/engine interface to remove that engine. Not hard to do if you have the time and the right equipment (floor jacks, jack stands, an engine floor crane).
I don't have any info on your 3510 (my Mahindra is a 5525). However, you can get a good idea of what's involved in this video in which a Farmall Cub is deconstructed (my Cub is a 1951 model). The last 2 minutes shows the engine being pulled (i.e. the tractor has been split - finally).

I like to handle engines with a bridge-type gantry crane (mine is a $500 from Harbor Freight--1 ton capacity). Here's it in use when I disassembled by 1951 Minneapolis Moline BF tractor for a complete restoration.

Good luck.

If your tractor is the TYM built 3510, it is built just like my 4110 except for the engine size and I would assume is assembled just like mine. I have had mine split several times over the years and yes, you would have to split it in order to get the engine seperated for the repairs you say you need. The job isn't that bad if you have decent mechanical skills. I recently had to put a pressure plate in mine and split it with a floor jack and couple of jack stands on a piece of plywood on gravel, by myself in one day. Of course seperating the engine from the front half of the tractor will involve more time & work but I'm just giving you an idea of how a split isn't quite a terrible job that some might think. If you don't have the mechanical skills though, you could easily get hurt and/or cause more damage to your tractor. Good luck with whatever you end up doing with it.

I've been a Mahindra dealer for 10 years and have never heard of a 3510 DI. The 3510 doesn't use a direct injection engine. If I new what you have, I could email you some parts breakdown pictures that might help you.
