Default reverse flushing my 35.. lower hoses.. suggestions?

Still dealing with the overheating issue but getting closer. Used Thermocure and that looks to have broken up what is considered "gel" fall out from the green antifreeze. (silicate dropout). Also called Green Snot.

It settles in low spots, suggesting a reverse flush.. BUT, the lower hoses are almost impossible to remove and replace.. they are short (like 5") and dual angled.. since the pump and lower outlet centerlines are not aligned.

I will try a variety of methods, but does anyone have a suggestion if I choose to go the lower hose route.. like a VERY flexible short hose.
