I'm trying to change the front freeze plug. In having done trouble with not having enough space. I'm planning on removing the exhaust manifold, but as I've never done this, I thought I'd see if you could tell me how to do so. And or give me some tips. Thanks in advance!!!

You definitely need to remove the exhaust because you would need the space for installation.

you'll probably have to pull the manifold to get to it then put blue Loctite around it when you install the new one.
