Default Oil pan - stuck trying to remove bolt from bell housing

Hey all,
im trying to figure out a way to remove the topmost/driver-side bolt between the bell housing and oil pan.
There are coolant lines and the catalytic converter blocking my wrenches. I’ve tried universal joints, socket extensions, The Force, lots of cussing, ... no luck.
move watched a few YT vids that gloss over the process.
thanks for your help!

The hard lines from the transmission to the cooler should be able to moved to one side if you unbolt the brackets that hold them.

That worked, thanks! I just had to take that bracket off and use a little persuasion to just barely move the lines out of the way.
