True. I see the two oil lines and where they go...but what is the easiest way to remove them?

Easiest way is to drop them out the bottom. The hardest thing is to get the 10MM screw out of the front of the motor. Even harder getting it back in.

You will also make a little bit of a mess doing them so keep a drain pan close.

Forgive my ignorance, but uh...what 10mm screw? I thought all you had to do was get those really annoying clamps off to take the hoses out.

No there is a 10MM bolt that goes into the front of the motor. If you look at your new lines you will see the hole where the screw goes.
