Headlight replacement - help with washer sprayer

I have to replace a headlight on my 1969 Corvette.

I popped the headlights up and removed the screws from the bezel but got stuck on the washer sprayer.

How do you detach / get around the washer sprayer to pull the bezel off the headlight assembly to get at the headlight?

You cannt raise the bezel high enough to get an open end wrench on the nut holding the nozzle?

that's the reason the lower washer was moved to the vertical position .
