EGR valve removal.

I have searched to the ends of Google and YouTube looking for a way to remove the pipe leading from the EGR valve to the engine block. I can easily remove the 2 bolts securing the egr valve to the manifold. There is a pipe fitted with a nut on the end of it that attaches to the egr valve. there is no way you can get a socket on the bolt because the pipe blocks it. you can only use a wrench however there is no clearance for a wrench even with the battery removed, intake filter housing, and throttle body.  My next attempt would be to remove the upper intake manifold. But to do this i would have to remove the bolts securing the egr valve to the manifold so my fear is that if i were to try to remove that nut from the valve it would break the pipe because there is nothing holding the egr in place while i apply such force. No leverage is the word i was looking for. I don't know what else to try and i am unable to find anything regarding the removal of this pipe on Google or YouTube. I'm at the pulling my hair out stages with this egr valve LOL. 2012 Ford Fusion 3.0l v6. Any help is appreciated.
