4.0 Upper Intake Manifold

My original post was for leaking valve cover. Was advised to check the upper intake manifold, and found it to be leaking oil as well. My question is: Can you really loosen the nuts holding this upper intake manifold? What is the trick? I have tried and tried and some yes I can get but what id the trick to get the center nuts?

I would have e-mailed those who origianlly responded, but am new to the list and cannot e-mail direct.

Thansk for any help,
Ron
