loose nut on 02 housing

i have a loose nut in the back of the 02 hosing closest to the block, the bolt is really close to the housing so i cant get a socket on it. i have to use a 9/16 wrench but i dont know if ill have room to wrench it, i didnt take the exhaust manifold off yet but i dont know if thats going to help much? can it be tightened from under the car or do i have to pull the turbo out? anybody have this problem before

Yea I had mine fall out when driving TWICE. This time I used NordLocks to make sure they don't fall off.
