pushrod tube cover/shield

Hello, fettling a few things on the van this afternoon and wanted to test/remove the oil pressure switch. The bottom bolts of the push rod cover undid easily enough but the top ones are a bit stubborn. Cleaned them up with a wire brush and sprayed with plus gas for now. Has anyone bent up the shield without knackering it to access the switch ?
cheers David

No you will damage the covers I think

I assume you mean the exhaust stud nuts, when you finally get them off I reccomend putting it back over the nut so next time its easy to get off, it can't fall off as its stretched over the studs

Yes i thought as much, only asked in the small hope someone had done it. Will get under it again and have another go mid week.
thanks David
