Next it says that the four nuts securing each manifold to its cylinder head can be removed.

Is that any help? Workshop manuals rarely give advice on how to reach inaccessible fasteners. I'm afraid that it's up to you to devise a method which might involve buying an appropriate tool.

I managed to remove it took the rest of the exhaust out first and left the rear manifold at last then I used 2 extensions on my ratchet and flexy bit in the end to get to the bolts and after a lot of wd40 swearing and struggling they came off. for anyone attempting this an impact gun would be very useful also applying some heat.
