lots of wiggling and pulling. the seals go rock hard and take a considerable amount of effort to separate them - just keep pulling it and wiggle from side to side gently.  :y

You can do it without removing the throttle body, but i agree - it would be easier to take it off.

Only only the extended plenums you can....not on the 2.5 and early 3.0 short ones

You'll probably need to raise the front og the plenum to get socket on the lower throttle body screws. Ease the body forward just enough to clear the two pipe stubs on the plastic section.
