Default stubborn h-pipe, cant get to the nut next to starter

my stock h-pipe is bein a real bitch to say the least, i have every nutoff but one, the one right next to the starter, ive tried a swivel, ive tried a long socket, short one, and i tried every angle i possibly could. is there a secret to getting this one off? i was just gonna cut it, buti dont even see enough room to cut it off

either see if you can lift that side of the motor to get to it or just cut it and pull out from the top. if you plan on putting long tubes on then you gotta lift the motor anyway. either way its a pain
