350 passenger exhaust manifold heat shield, dipstick tube, and labor
I can't get mine off. The AIR fittings don't want to come out without breaking, and I just can't do the rest of the work to get the manifold off. The 2nd to last bolt towards the rear is seized to the heat shield, so that is all bent up and it kicked the socket right off the nut. I can't get a tool on it anymore and I'm too weak from working on this damn thing nonstop for days to even pry the shield back into place to even attempt to get a tool onto it. The studs fastening to the y-pipe also snapped on me. I need someone to come take off my manifold so I can drill out these fittings and studs, bring a heat shield, and put it back on. I don't have much money either. I need this car to get to work daily.
I also now need an oil dipstick tube. I will also need all hardware.

My husband is good with those sort of things, and we probably have the parts too. But we live a little over two hours away, and I don't know when he would have the free time.

I got it done. I needed it right away, and I missed a day of work because of it. I still need a dipstick tube and other stuff, but it's going to be 2 weeks until I can afford anything.

Does anyone local have a dipstick and tube??? I can't afford to drive hours and I can't afford to buy one from a store. I have an Autozone piece of crap that does not fit. Right now I have nothing to put in the hole. HELP!
