STarter Motor please HelP{!!!!!!

I know I already made a post about this, but I need more help, and its buried away somewhere in the message pit. Anyway, will someone please tell me, how do you get the bolt holding the starter motor on off? (1977 530i)

I got the outside one off, but the one on the side that touches the block is the bugger. I took off the intake pipes above it, but I have yet to determine a physically possible way of getting some kind of wrench onto that bolt... I have tried everything I can think of short of taking off the intake manifold, but even though it would leave more room, I still do not think a 17 mm anything will be able to make its way down tehre.

This sounds really dumb lol...

Anyway, I really need your help guys
