3.2 Fuel Line Removal

So I am in the process of removing the fuel lines on my 3.2. I got the SS Braided lines from Len which look great.

I am trying to remove them without removing the intake runners. I have everything off including the Allan bolt in the middle of the T.

How ever I am stuck trying to get the bracket in the far left corner removed? I can see the bolt from the front but don't seem to have any access to the back of it. and have tried every possible combination of sockets and wrenches but there doesn't seem to be enough room to get to it. As it seems like the other fuel lines and fuel pressure regulator are in the way.

Any suggestions?

I believe that this is the bolt that needs to be removed but just can't seem to get a wrench on it

Two bolts accessible from above the valve cover.

Thanks, Do I need to remove those bolts and the whole fuel pressure regulator assembly? or should i be able to undo the bracket without taking all of that apart?

This is the bracket that i need to get undone

If you are just removing that 'T', I think you only need to remove the bolt circled in your pic of post #2, the bracket doesn't have to come out. I did this 10 years ago so my memory may be off, and I also need to mention that I was intending to remove the intakes - so my process/order may have incorrect as this was my very first project.

The one that I had the most problems with was the 4mm? x long socket head cap screw that you mentioned.
