Default Power steering control valve

Could someone please tell me how to get the dust cover off the control valve so I can get to the nut to make an adjustment. I tried a thin blade screwdriver trying to tap it out without destroying it, can't get pliers on it because of the lines in front of it, nothing works "HELP"

Some of them are a tight fit but it is pressure that holds them. Try a bigger flat blade screwdriver and hammer. It should come

Small chisel and hammer should get the job done.
