A/C Evaporator inspection and removal

Hey fellas,

I need to check the evaporator and the expansion valve area for leaks - I'll be looking for the die using a blue light. I'm currently in the middle of removing the lower half of the evaporator tray inside the cab (under the pass dash). The three clips that hold the two halves together were removed as well as all securing nuts. The lower half "wants" to come out and there is a snag. The condensate drain hose was removed as well.

-Is it possible to even remove the lower half of the evaporator tray?
-Do I need to remove the high and low pressure lines gong through the firewall into the evaporator in order to do this? I wouldn't think so....

Before anyone asks, the compressor, drier, condenser and all O rings have been replaced. But I still have a leak somewhere

Thanks for any insight.
