1st engine drop

I'm removing the engine from my 86 930 for the 1st time and I have a question regarding the removal of the large (steel braided) oil line that goes from the left (driver) side of the engine to the oil thermostat. Both ends are fairly obstructed, but it appears that the connection to the thermostat is somewhat more accessible. I'd appreciate any advice from those of you that have accomplished a drop of a turbo motor.

I've included a few pictures and you can see that the connection to the motor is very difficult to get access to without removing the exhaust first. Whereas, the connection to the thermostat is (more better) accessible.

Regards, Dave
