Is it possible to list the contents of a LZMA file (.7zip) without uncompressing the whole file? Also, can I extract a single file from the LZMA file?

My problem: I have a 30GB .7z file that uncompresses to >5TB. I would like to manipulate the original .7z file without needing to do a full uncompress.
