And if not for an oil change, what other standard maintenance requires access? I want to remove it myself so it won't get ripped apart.
Many thanks for any thoughts.

I never removed my dog house for an oil change. I also insulated my dog house so I dont want mess with any possible air leaks by removing it once a year for an oil change.
Just get a long funnel then add about 3 or 4 foot of hose (Clear is nice but most will get a kink unless you get the nylon reinforced hose). I used I think a 5/8 inch rubber hose (was designed for a Heater Hose?) and attached it to my long funel that has a lid on it.
Works great and keep any possible messes and smells outside the RV. My wife is very sensative to smells so I have to think about stuff like that.
