Worst. Job. Ever. Orfice tubes never come out in one piece. Never. Just stay at it. Use lots of WD-40 and the thinnest pliars you can find. If you want you can use a sharp pick to get some of the orfice tube guts off the side of the pipe, but be careful not to poke a hole in the that tube-it's aluminum. Leaky evaporators are very inconvenient. I don't think sobriety is necessarily a requirement for this job, but patience is.
