Hod difficult is to replace from brake lines?

Looking at a schematic, the front brake line from MC to passenger side caliper goes along a cross-member on the engine side. Is the replacement possible (using a pre-bent line) without removing any components or raising the engine? I have the 1992 V6 Camaro if that matters.

There are little bolted in tabs that hold the brake line. Depending on your x member to oil pan clearance, you may be able to swap it w the engine in place. My car cannot, i was able to get the bolt backed out but it hit my oil pan before it was fully out so it wasn't happening w the engine in.
