More fun - PS line leaking

There was a leak somewhere at the PS pump. After cleaning the whole thing I found that high pressure line fitting at the pump side is loose. The nut is tight so I need to remove the line in order to figure out how to fix it. The pump side is easy, I was able to brake the nut loose, but how do I get it off the steering box?
Any way to get a wrench there?

I think I got to those fittings via the wheel well. There should be enough clearance with the wheels turned all the way to the left.
