EGR removal

Trying to take off the EGR valve on a 1995 Ford Ranger with the 2.3L. I can get the 1 1/16" wrench on it, but no room to move. Any other tools I can use to get better access to it?

Never had that engine but would a crowfoot wrench work?
Flare nut style is best, if it can fit over the pipe

I often need these for O2 sensors

But not the right sizes, you can get them as single size

I know it is a 27MM. Straight wrench, once on, does not leave any room to swing, as it hits the cowl. Impossible coming from the DS.
