You should be able to manhandle the tube to get the bolt out with an open end wrench. Your other option is to loosen or remove the bolt holding the tube to the head...don't be afraid to push the tube around.

You should have enough room to maneuver the tube out of the way to clear the intake. Just take your time and be careful. If worse comes to worse remove the bolt attaching it to the rear of the cylinder head to free it up a bit, but I see no reason that you should have to do that.
