Motor mounts have lost all their fluid. Started replacing them today. Left side easy to do. Right side not so much. Shop manual says to remove the charge air pipe The air charge pipe has a bracket the is attached to the oil filter housing. There is no access to bolt. It is an Allen head. Has anyone run across this? I cut a 5mm Allen wrench and was able to get it in the bolt then using a tiny wrench on it but it slips. my guess is loctite. If the engine mount or the alternator were removed I could get to it.
The red circle is where it is but it’s on the other side of the pipe.
