Jack under the front crossmember or under diff, a pair of jackstands under the corresponding square jack tubes. And wheel chocks under the opposite axle wheels. I always try to avoid jacking one side up and stressing the chassis that way, I've heard from a couple members where that tweaked their front end alignment just slightly.
As long as those jack tubes aren't rusty then they should be fine to support the weight of the car. Worst case they're just steel square tubes that would be cheap to replace and reweld.
