Hi.
You asked if the pipes are accessible from the engine bay and the answer is yes.
They are removed by taking off the small cover ON THE BULKHEAD and not by removing the scuttle panel.
Look to the right of the Brake Servo and you will see the two pipes passing through a plate secured by two nut-type fixings. Remove that plate and you will see the two pipes attached to the Expansion Valve.
You will also need to raise up and move aside the Coolant and Steering Reservoirs to give access to the rest of the pipework.
The only pipework the other side of the Expansion Valve is on the Evaporator itself and you won`t want to go there.
