There are two bolts that hold it on to the inlet of the rear turbo. They are 10mm bolts. You can use a swivel and get them or use a 10mm wrench, preferably on with a ratchet. You will have "wiggle" it out but it can be done.

Hmm, there was no danger mine was coming out when the engine was in place, I did manage to get it out with the engine tilted forward when taking the engine out.

as what philiwily stated, you can tilt the engine forward a bit and this might help getting it out, but it can be done without this, and tilting might be more effective if there is no transmission. When I did mine, I remember having to go under the car and using a swivel and extension to reach one of the nuts. Its very tight but can be done
