Got to be worth a try take a look at the video will give you some idea, better than trying to remove the bolts.
&t=90s
The lower 8mm pipe air inlet valve and the upper exhaust 10mm will be probably be siezed in and will need to be cut if you do need to remove compressor not to mention the single upper bolt being a pain to get at
so nothing to lose trying first.
Good LuckAndy

Yes I saw that video ,By looking at the compressor is the exhaust valve that he takes out on the side facing away from you ? Might be a tight squeeze but doable.Cheers disgoeshere
