Default Snapped part of rear caliper ebrake mechanism.

Basically as the title states, just wondering what I should've done to get the ebrake lever thing off to be able to replace seals? Seems stupid there isn't just a bolt.

I did, the garage didn’t tell me that intake manifold had been replaced with the incorrect part. Meaning the spot where the oil fill cap should be didn’t exist, and where the hole for it was on the new manifold, they put a piece of sheet metal sandwiched under the engine mount… shockingly I returned the car.
