To change the clutch master cylinder, the line to the slave cylinder is "poly" and locked in place with a roll pin, there is not enough room between the power brakes and fender to drive it (roll pin)out with a drift pin and hammer, is there a special plier type tool? or can you cut the poly line and will it seal with the new O-ring they supply with the new cylinder?

Not true! The "master" and come seperate, both come with new
O-rings and roll pins to replace using the original "poly" line.
the roll pin on the slave cylinder is accessable to change. again the roll pin on the Master cylinder is the one in question??
