I have an intake air filter on a compressor. Got a new one to replace
this one. My problem is that I am completely stumped as to how to
remove the old filter, as the gap between the filter body and the
compressor is not wide enough to insert a pipe wrench. I must be
missing something very patently obvious.

My old Kellogg-American had a similiar filter housing, I could remove it
with a strap wrench. But this may not apply to yours.
