i had that problem with mine also. i read to take a flat head screwdriver and carefully pry it along the edges. it shouldn't take long before it pops loose. that worked with mine. just be careful not to push too hard or it could dent the cover. hopefully that's will work if you haven't tried it yet. good luck

What year car, and what motor exactly?
Should be 4 bolts (perimeter bolt style?) and should be super easy... But again, which motor?

Even without the diverter it's still a pain to do with the heater hoses, injector harness and AIR tubing all getting in the way.
