I'm no numerics expert, but the OP asked specifically about an
Euler-Lagrange equation.  If that's the same type as found in
classical mechanics then it's likely there's some libraries around
specifically aimed at it.

Yes, PDE's in general are a very complicated subject but this may be a
special case.
