Rocket 324 Engine Stand Help

I am about to start rebuilding the engine in my 56 Holiday 98. I have pulled the engine and the transmission. The bell housing on the back of the engine does not look like it can support the engine on a stand. Does anyone know if it can? If not what is the best way to hold the engine to rebuild. Thanks

I always use a secondary support, like an inverted T, from the front of the engine stand legs up to the block.
