    thing that would be attached to the snorkel hose coming off the intake manifold here, and the silver oriface in the bottom half (is it)

    Oh shoot, the injectors need to be removed for that? Job looks messier by the minute.

    Default no they dont....

    that's just a pic i took when i was trying to do my headgasket, its just clearer than if the intake manifold were (fixed) normally in position. no removal is necessary, just small hands.
