Default Brake Line Bracket Help!!

Ok, I am sorry if I am missing something but.....I am in the process of dropping the engine out of the bottom, for the first time. I have had the motor out of the top before and bottom seems much easier. Ok, I have removed the heat shield that is on the drivers side that covers the front brake lines. There is a grey and black bracket that holds the brake lines to the body. How in the **** do I "pop" the lines out as the directions I am following say to do. I can't get them to budge and the black part of the bracket looks like a cover with a vertical slit in it. Also, should brake fluid slowly poor out of the distribution block when I disconnect the front brake lines? It just keeps slowly coming out of the block.

Thanks for any tips and advice!

Matt

Bump...dead in the water here! Please share any info if you have removed the steel front brake lines from the bracket on the inside of engine bay. It is on the drivers side. Black and gray bracket or clip.
