Timing Cover Removal

Anyone have experience removing the timing cover??

I’m struggling to remove the power steering 16mm bracket bolt since there’s no room. Does anyone know if I need to remove it to take out the timing cover?

I’m also struggling to remove the long horizontal alternator bolt as it doesn’t slide out like all the YouTube videos show. Does the bolt need to be removed to remove the cover?

i learned you do not need to remove the power steering pump bracket 16 mm to remove the timing cover.
