Would like some guidance on cleaning the EGR valve.

From what I can tell, there are three points where the EGR is secured. Two bolts on the right and left. I removed these easily with my socket wrench (12 mm). For the bottom, I can't seem to get any leverage to loosen the EGR valve from the base. Any help on what tool I should use? There is very little space to work in this area (between the engine and the firewall) and its looking to be a serious pain to get the thing off!

I am trying to clean the EGR valve as I've recently received a CEL that pointed back to lack of air flow from the EGR. I've heard from other members on this forum that carbon build up can cause this to occur.
