Guess I'll just stick a chain through the original hook bolt and lift it from there.
I just unbolt the engine and pick it up with my hands. It’s not that heavy. I use a wide front rim to set it on so the oil pan/plug doesn’t get damaged. The engine sits level this way too.

I used a step ladder with a come-along. The come-along was hung from a pipe on the two top steps. It worked quite well. Even an old guy with a bad back got it out alone, with ease.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
