N62 VCG Replacement Help

Hey everyone I’m working on replacing my valve cover gasket and upper timing chain cover gaskets and need help.

I’m having trouble with removing the driver side valve cover. I’ve tried many different angles and moving different components to create clearance but still am having trouble and ended up breaking a tab on the Eccentric shaft sensor. I think the issue I’m having is my valve cover keeps hitting the clamp for the two heater hoses alongside the left wall which doesn’t allow enough clearance to clear the Eccentric shaft sensor.

Does anyone have tips on how to get the cover out?
