1998 Grand Am Quad 4 How do I remove water inlet?

Hello I have a 4 cylinder quad 4 2.4 liter. I believe I have damaged the water inlet pipe/tube that the thermostat sits in and connects below the water pump. I can get it completely loose but I can't get it out of the car. Please help!.... Thanks....

Thanks for all the help...LOL... Issue resolved... I really should try and then ask for help. I was just so tired and frustrated with the car. The pipe was warped around where it seals. I had to remove the small mount held on by 5 15mm bolts to get it out. I then beat it out with a hard rubber mallet. It should seal up good as new now. I hope!

it is tight under there :lol:
