PS pump check valves removal problem

[Phil Rose <pjrose@servtech.com>]

My PS pump rebuild went smoothly 'till I tried to replace the little
o-rings for the two small check valves. Neither of these valves will budge,
and I have a twisted and broken hex-key socket to prove it--even though the
tightening torque for these valves wasn't supposed to be very high. Is
removing these valves usually such a problem? What am I missing here?

There didn't seem to be leakage at those valves, but I wanted to replace
the o-rings to be on the safe side. Now looks like they'll just have to
stay put.
