I'm assuming you drained the pan, so remove the bolt between the 2 lines right at the trans. The hard lines are dip-brazed to a block and are not separate. You'll still have some drainage.

It's been a while, but IIRC there's a bolt that holds the lever to the trans body and the cable is attached to the TC housing with a bracket that will be removed when you unbolt the housing. The cable itself runs on the outside, not inside, of the torque tube. Once disconnected, just let it hang or tie it out of the way.

Remove center console, shifter, and undo the clamp holding it to shifter. It is hooked with a roll pin in the rear under the housing, and can't be removed from the back.

Oops! I just recognized you have a manual and I was thinking automatic. Sorry.

Lines unclip up front, remove exhaust, tunnel plate, etc to remove them.

You unclip them from the front, then once it is apart, can pop out the clip in the rear to remove them, but you can't get to that clip without removing the TT first.
