Default Temp sending unit

Howdy fellas, new here. Just wondering if y'all have and quick tips to remove the temp sending unit. It looks like my sending unit is right up against the valve cover in the back and I can't even get a socket over it. I tried a wrench but it's pretty tight back there and the fuel rail wiring harness is kind of in the way and so is my big wiring harness running across the firewall. Do y'all have any tips for me to remove this without breaking it? Maybe I'm not using the right tools but I'm thinking I'ma just pop the valve cover to get at it but that seems unessary. Thanks

Deep socket, and note it screws in at a bit of an angle.
