2.1 head removel im stuck

[omega]

got a d8 2.1 diesel that im breaking so this afternoon i decided it would be a good idea to remove the cylinda head as i thought it might be a good idea to have a spare.well i got stuck in and soon removed all the bits and bobs then started on the head bolts.well let me tell you they are tight and in the end they went with a twang that sent vibrations up the arm and yes i had to use a bar on them as well.
so feeling chuffed i started to lift the head got it up about half a inch and it would nt come any more,so after a bit of pokeing and checking i found that a pipe was stuck to the head and i cant free it.
its the metal pipe thats runs from the back of the head its about a inch in diamanter and i think it goes to the turbo.
does anyone know how its attached to the back of the head and how to remove it?

I think that one end has a fold over clip round it, you need to get a pair of side cuts and grip one half of the clip and twist it off (like those petrol pipe clips that fold over and clip together)or a small screwdriver between the ends and flick it open.

thanks will have a look tomorrow,because of the position of it you can hardley see anything might have to take bonnet off.
