So I am working on removing my trans to replace my clutch. It’s the first time I have tried to do this so bare with me here. There a great post on replace the clutch on here which has been very helpful but it’s on a ZL1. I have everything disconnected with the exception of one of the trans cooler lines which is pictured below. It’s a different set up on my 15 1LE than I can find anywhere. I have taken the clip off the fitting but I can’t get this line to come out. I’ve pryed on it a bit but don’t want to destroy it so that it won’t reseal when I’m putting it back on. Also once I have it off I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to move it around much to drop the trans. Any advice would be helpful. I’m a beginner at best wrenching on this car but I’m bound and determined to learn how to wrench on this car.
Thanks in advance

When you go to reinstall put the clip in first and then just pop it right in
