Pulling engine - remove AC?

I am probably pulling the engine this weekend - so far I have everything removed except for the exhaust manifold bolts and the tranny mount bolts.
I removed the intake for better access and to swap it over to the new engine.

I have teh AC pump unbolted and I swung it out of the way and can move it over to where the pump sits right where the battery normally is. Only problem is the main AC hose going into the firewall kindof goes over the top of the engine in the rear.

Has anyone removed an engine without unplugging and removing the AC pump?
I have no experience with hvac and am kinda afraid to unbolt it and have chemicals spray out and burn me up.
I think I have enough room to do it.

If it is necessary to remove it how do I do it without risking certain doom?
