The hose probably has loctite on it. Carefully put the drop in a vice grip and use a wrench to unscrew the hose. You might want to put some kind of padding between the vice grip and drop so you don't scratch it.

Do what he said, or take a Lighter to the loctited threads, when you see black smoke coming off of it, ue your wrench, and take it off.
