Hi pittroj,

For the one under the manifold, I did split bottom of the hose using a box cutter knife but it came without any issues when I pulled gently.

For installation, it's easier to access if the hose clamp bolt is facing towards radiator/front. I removed the flame trap relocation kit all together. My right elbow was resting against the brake booster and my right hand was holding the clamp in position under the manifold. With my left arm, I grabbed a 3/8" ratchet with a long extension thru in between #3 and #4 manifold for tightening.

Good luck.
