try and get a shot at it, but it looks as if the fuel injection unit was cleverly designed as a last line of defense to disallow access to the master.

Removing other components/assemblies is a fact of life. Although it's supposed to be an easy job, some things require you to do a little disassembling. Removing the brake booster on my Cressida damn near required me to remove the intake. The right side of the 505's engine compartment is a crowded place.

I had to remove a TON of stuff to do the heater hose on my 87 turbo. But, I was already in there fixing years of neglect so most of what I took out needed to be gone through anyway. I remember saying to myself, "man, I'd hate to have to after that component if that's all I needed to do" as I was putting everything back.

It's a tight fit taking the stuff out and a tight fit going back in. Worse yet, it's usually filther than crap going in. In thorough disgustion, I started cleaning stuff right away and didn't take the time to properly document stuff coming out. Who wants to take pictures of a grease pit? And get their camera dirty?

Thankfully I figured out where everything went.

But the larger point is that you very well may have to take out other components to get at your target. The battery is nothing.
