cant help you with the hose.

But i had to change my standard sandwich plate ( silver plate thing), i did it with the manifold on. a little bit tricky but youll get it, just make sure you replace the gasket and o rings with nissan gear so they dont leak

It may be easier to get at from under the car. You'll have to remove a ton of plastic first
