This was one of the first things I did when I got my 230 about 7 years ago. It definitely comes out from underneath. I don't recall any issue with those pipes. Is it an original alternator or maybe its been replaced at some point with a physically bigger unit.? Or maybe one or both pipes have been replaced and rerouted.
The biggest issue I recall was getting the new one in place and holding it there to get the bolts back in.
Good luck in sorting it.
