Default Urgent rear main seal

I'm changing my rear main seal, and I ran into a problem with the front two bolts on the oil pan, these are 2 of the last four bolts i need to remove

Between the transmission and the back of the oil pan it seems like its warped a little and I cant get a socket, or wrench to loosen the bolt. I've tried to wedge a screw driver to move it out of the way but itsnt working. anyone have any suggestions?

Unbolt and remove that access cover from the front of the trans bellhousing first.
