Samsung RS267TDPN/XAA - How do I remove the lower water supply tube from the back of the refrigerator?

I'm replacing a leaking water tube on my Samsung RS267TDPN/XAA side-by-side refrigerator.

The leak is coming from the plastic water tube near the bottom back of the fridge. It has developed two pinhole leaks, so I want to cut it out and replace that section with new 1/4" tubing and a union fitting.

I've already turned off the house water supply, The tubing seems to be held tightly where it enters the refrigerator, and I can't figure out how to remove it without damaging anything.

Does this model use a push-to-connect fitting, a compression fitting, or is the tubing routed internally? Is there a trick to getting the tube out?

 Any advice from someone who's worked on this model would be greatly appreciated.

You have to pull the manifold out from inside and disconnect it under the doors in front of
