66 T'bird Rear Brake Valve repair help-detail

Hello T'bird forum, this is my first posting and most likely not my last.
Ok my problem is simple ( l hope ) ,during the rstoration of our Eastern Californian ^^ Landau Town car, we have a problem in opening the Rear Brake Valve body, my brake guy, is a little reluctant to apply to much force on the nut to open the internals to either rebuild or rekit.
Can anyone give me either some advice or better a detail of the inside of this valve.
Just in case , this valve in inline under the master cylinder and feeds the pressure to the rear wheel cylinders.
My 66 shop manual only shows the unit inline and not a detail of its contruction.
Q/ are we likely to break this unit if to much force is used to open it ?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to give.

David Dare Victoria Australia.
