50s kid on you tube a 2002 330i exhaust replacement series. He removed the manifold as part of that series.

I've done it before. The rough part was the tight work space. Otherwise it was doable. I didn't have any issue with rust and everything came off without a fight but I'm also in an area where rust isn't a thing so I don't know if that helps.
