Thanks for the smiles, guys.
Smoking experience was interesting, guess who took a chance on the smoker being clean enough for this smoke and lost. The good news is I thing the cheese is fine and I now have a clean smoker for the next time. Used Dennis's idea of the long T wrench for the large tube and I found this baked potato stand that works well on the little intake air tube. I is about 1/4 inch short but the perfect diameter. Once the tube is removed I can clean it from both ends, no problem.
