removal of transmission pan advice needed 700

Ok, I've been trying to remove the dipstick tube from my automatic transmission pan to drop it and change the filter.

I've used about a half a can of PB blaster and still can't get it loose. I'm so paranoid now about damaging the pan that I'm second guessing myself.

My question is, which of the two nuts should I be loosening and which is there for support? Is it the smaller nut closest to the dipstick tube, or the larger nut closer to the pan that should be loosened?

I think I've got the right one, but I want confirmation before I go to the torch.
