5th gen evap core removal is different than 4th

5th gen evap core removal is different than 4th. on the 4th gen the evap box is separate from the blower motor box but, on the 5th gen they are molded together as one box. i wonder if it comes out all the same. also it looks like the 2 lines going in to the box on the firewall are held in with one bolt.

I don't think I've ever heard of one leaking.
