Well after ages, trying to undo the bolts using heat, they didn't undo they snapped, so took the manifold off. Drilled out old studs left. Just got to put it all back together, then hopefully it will go through emissions. Put two new back metal brake pipes on as the tester tried to clean them, but said they need changing. Then hopefully will have a years mot on it.

Thank you for all the suggestions, and offers of help. It is much appreciated.

Congratulations. Last 2.0 Omega I had, I had to replace the exhaust manifold as it cracked, a not uncommon fault. Good luck with the emissions test.

I couldn't see any cracks, so hopefully OK. Thanks for telling me, will keep an eye on the manifold, where is the main problem area for them?
