NEED HELP :( Intake manifold stuck
Hello,
I was replacing my VVC on my 325i 2006 sedan, and broke the breather hose (#3) in the back of the engine that connects to the Valve cover from one side and to the oil separator from the other side. I was going to replace the hose, and unbolted the intake manifold and all hoses, but when i am trying to remove the intake manifold from its place, the oil separator is stuck to it, and the hose #4 is in the way. I am not being able to reach it so i can pry it off. On some videos online, i haven't seen the oil separator causing a problem when removing the intake manifold. How can i pry this hose off?? Also, why is the oil separator stuck to the manifold? |

Hope you sorted this already but the separator has a screw or two holding it on to the manifold I was able to remove it just fine off a junkyard 530 e60 so idk why you guys had issues. Most of the hassle is the box with the connectors in the bottom
