Exhaust manifold gasket
#4
I think that the exhaust front pipe will move enough when the front flange joint is dismantled to allow the manifold to be removed. If not, loosening the pipe joint at the front of the silencer should do the trick. The main problem is usually rust on one or more of the manifold studs. If that is a problem tapping a small bolster or two into the gasket joint is far better than using a screwdriver near the ends of the manifold. If any studs are loose or come out during dismantling it is a good idea to refit with thread sealant into the block, so that water does not creep through and cause rust between the stud and the manifold. I have used stainless steel studs which are less prone to getting stuck with rust.
