Tricky but it can be done. See http://216.239.39.104/translate_c?hl=de&langpair=de%7Cen&u=http://www.mgfcar.de/gearbox/refill.html&prev=/language_tools

It's a bit of a pain, but quite possible to access from underneath.

The most important bit is to decant the MGR oil from the large unusable container into one of the sqeezy oil bottles with a 6 inch pipe on the top.

If you are only topping up it's not too bad. If you are refilling completely make a pressure fed device, same principle as gunson Eezibleed for brakes then it's quick and easy. Rob did have some pictures and instructions on his site but I can't find them.

What's the consent on replacing washers when doing this? (also when replacing engine oil...)
