Blower snout possible to remove without removing whole blower?

[Om3ga47]

Just curious. Going to do a bearing and coupler replacement. Has anyone removed the snout without actually pulling the blower?

Just take off the shout bolts and remove the snout. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes.

Ok thank you. I just ask because it seems objects may be in the way such as the intercooler manifold tube. Have you personally done this? I have removed the blower before,really do not want to do it again if it can be avoided.

On my car, I think the PO might have done just that! (His being lazy cost me a new manifold) Don't want to chance a leak.
