some times you just have to go by feel , I have an old motorcycle mirror that I use to see the un reachable , if it was easy everyone would do it .
You can also visit gmpartsgiant or gmpartsdirect and look at an exploded view of the cooling system parts. That'll give you an idea of how the tube is mounted and where the fasteners are. Hope that helps! Jim
I checked those sites and many others to no avail. Looked for engines for sale, etc., hoping to find one showing exactly where and how this tube attaches to the engine, but nothing shows up. Auto parts stores even sell this tube so they are no help either. Anyhow, I just wanted to thank you @beatupchevy, and@Js08016 for your input. Thanks.
