How do you take off the A.I.R. cross pipe?

I'm removing the AIR pump and can't get the A.I.R. cross pipe off? It seems to be caught up on the power steering pump. I don't want to have to remove that part of the engine bay, so I was thinking off just cutting it in have. Any ideas?

You can cut it, or just bend it enough with your bare hands to get it to come out, thats how I did it.

Yah if you don't plan to reuse it, just bend the ****er, cut it, or get one of them pipe cutting tools that you spin around the tube and tighten as you go...
