All you can hope for is to get the nuts on the straps etc free, spray diesel on the bolts/nuts for a few days first.

Just take off the pipes and use the lowest one as it will drain lower, as it's normally the return, then jack car up etc to push fuel to that side so as to get as much as possible out.
