I replaced those hoses on a 760GLE once-- I don't remember having to take the intake manifold off. It has been 8-9 years, but it seems to me that I used a combination of stubby flat blade screw drivers, a 7mm socket on a flexible extension, an open end wrench and lots of colorful language...

I think everything will depend on the location of the existing hose clamp drive screws now.

Hopefully it didn't overheat too dramatically-- this aluminum engine has wet cylinder liners that can come unseated when you pull the head(s) and the heads themselves can only be machined slightly, otherwise the timing belt gets sloppy. One problem I had with mine was that because of dissimilar metals, removing steel fasteners from the aluminum block often meant that the block threads came out with the bolts...

Good luck!
