OH! You mean those *ear* clamps that hold the oil lines to the fittings. Well, what I do, is get my propane torch out and just burn them off. The lines will melt and burn to nothing and leave the clamp by itself. Just flip the residue plastic off the clamps when they cool down. Easier than cutting/prying/whatever.

They are not reusable clamps though. You COULD make them reusable maybe. I've bought the earclamps from McMaster Carr (see the Archives in this section for part numbers). I've also just used saftey wire and twisted it around the line at the fitting.
