ABC Block Removal tool?

Hi All -

I am getting ready to rebuild my valve blocks and replace the accumulators on my '04 SL 55 (85K miles)

I have heard that the swivels on the ABC (lines see the attached photo) are actually quick connect / disconnect and that there is a tool that allows you to disconnect easily, saving a lot of tedious wrenching in tight quarters when removing or installing the valve blocks. Any one able to confirm this and give a part number or source for this tool?

Also haven't bought accumulators yet, is there a suggested resource, or just get from dealer?

Thanks!
John

No special tools are needed. Its just a little big of a tight fit.
