W126 starter motor replacement

Help please. I am replacing the starter motor on my 420SEL and have everything disconnected EXCEPT one of the Allen head bolts at the back - seems extremely difficult to get to and tucked in behind the bell housing and tight up against the exhaust pipe. Doesn't appear to have been documented in a DIY. I've done a search but no one seems to have written about a starter motor replacement. ALLDATADIY doesn't document a step by step replacement. Anyone know the trick to getting that bolt out?
