LIM gasket replacement - removing fuel hose from fuel rail?

Hey, right now im the middle of my LIM gasket replacement and I almost have the LIM off. It's pretty much off, except for the fuel hose on the front of the fuel rail.

Sorry if this is a n00b question, but I'm not sure how to take it off. It has this different connector it seems. The hose doesn't just come off I don't think. I was just wondering if there was some special way to remove it or do I just yank it off? I've searched and consulted the FSM, but it just says to "remove this hose" haha.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's some pics to show what I'm talking about.

Oh, a friend just told me that its a banjo bolt or something, and I should just remove the 17mm bolt off haha. I'll try that and see where it goes.

I feel for you. I just did that a few months ago along with replacing the OMP lines and FPD. Now I am waiting on parts to replace my exhaust manifold and turbos.
