There isn't a lot of room to work around those bolts as you've seen. Last time I worked up in that area on the bolts, I ended up getting really creative, and using a 12pt box end wrench. ANd I had to take it off the bolt about once per point of the wrench too. I'm pretty sure it's possible, but I recall it not being pretty. (I haven't worked on any Turbos for the better part of a year).

The oil return pipe pulls out of the block. Make sure you order a new O-ring (obviously) except make sure you order two or three of them. It really stinks to break one and not have a spare, when reinstalling it.
