Default Replacing cooling fan motor

Hi 01 camaro v8 auto. Left cooling fan motor quit working.

Do I need to drain the cooling system to remove the dual fan assembly(how to navigate around hoses and wires attached)? The biggest problem I c right now is a upper radiator hose with ps cooler, 2nd problem ac hose.

How to remove the fan blades from the motor(is it pressed on the motor shaft or may be special tools are needed)?

Fan assembly will come out from the bottom of the car with ease. Then the nut is reverse thread. And the fan comes right off. I believe there are 3 bolts holding the tango the shroud. Super cheap to replace the motor than the whole fan assembly.

I tried from top and bottom all the hoses don't allow me to lift the fan shroud off the little hooks Top radiator hose and ac line seem to be interfering. I'll try again today. Thx
