Sonny,

Yep you found one of the funner parts of the Hummer, the engine!  You have it all right, take out more than you would even imagine doing, and then some more.  The radiator/trans cooler/ps cooler all are one piece to take out.  So while you have it all out go over it, unless you like the job that much........Yes it is a pain in the A.......Shrouds everwhere.......

There is a clamp bolting it to the frame up front between the radiator shroud and the frame that I can't get wrenches on and I think that even if I did get it out the line wouldn't come out. It looks like the whole mess up front will need to be removed like the oil cooler, radiator, radiator shroud, etc Am I right on this? Just thought that some of you have already been there and could pass on any short cuts you may know about.
