Turbo Removal

Do anyone know how to remove the oil lines from the turbos? I have removed the bolts, but the oils lines are still in there pretty good, you can spin them but not pull them out. I thought I would check with you guys before I put a tool on them and damaged them.

Thanks

If it is steel braided hose just pull it out. Rubber o-ring just become hard because of the temperature.

Return hose is the one on the top. Supply hose is the one on the bottom. Turbo's has it's own mini oil pump.
It is no pressure as long as motor not running. Might leak some oil
