Replace Oil Line from Engine to Radiator- How Difficult? 850

I own a 1995 850 turbo. The oil lines going to and from the radiator are leaking at the compression fittings- they need replacement.

The connections at the radiator are easy - same as the auto transmission cooler lines.

The 2 lines come together in the area under the alternator.

Looks straightforward - except I seem to recall someone posting that the engine would need to be jacked up a bit to obtain the clearance to loosen the connection at the block.

Anyone have direct hands on experience on this repair?
