OK, thanks guys. Looks like it's gotta come out since my fingers just aren't as nimble as they once were, but I might take a stab with a nut driver with the tape trick and use a swivel connection to try for the right angle.
Currently, I am somewhat embarrassed to say, I have the wire loop connecter on there and have it pulled back with bailing wire looped around the exhaust manifold and up to a clamp (fixed!). Well, when you are out in bumf%$& on a job,you do what you can. -BA
