Their referring to the exhaust manifold, based on them cracking plan on replacing it for all the labor involved just to remove it for inspection is silly.. it can be lifted and checked for leaking without removal in 10 minutes forget Haynes. Consider a muffler facility just to check for a cracked manifold the smart thing to do lift it and inspect. If you choose to replace then its your party. Just consider many books in addiction to the internet, Yeah.. Wiki too are flat out misinformation or as I say WRONG.
