Default IHC LB Head removal

Hi, This is the first LB engine I have had a chance to play with. I'm trying to understand the process for removing the head. It appears that the valve rockers must be removed in order to get to the upper two bolts of the 4 bolts that hold the head on...I don't have any wrenches that will fit back there with the rocker assembly on. How do the rockers come off???? There is a screw with a broken-off head in the left hand side of the rod that holds the rocker arms ( sort of visible in the picture attached ), I assume this has to come out to remove the valve rockers? I know this is a super-common engine, so someone in this group must know !
