To plastigage the crank and rods your teacher is correct in that you have to do it from the bottom of the motoe. Since your motor will be out of the car, it's really easy. Put it on an engine stand, flip it over (bottoms up) and pull the oil pan off. Remove the Mains one by one, the each rod cap, one by one. There's no need to pull the pistons/rods out of the block to do this, or "pull your motor apart'. Plus, it's a great learning experience for you.
