Just can't figure out why so many including myself have had the ugly but very predictable misfortune of shearing off our Turbo Exhaust Manifold studs ;oops:
Not the best design or material for that matter, but, you have to expect some things to not be perfect on this engine with as many things as it does do right.
I am going to have to drill into that sheared stud (right down the middle using a guide no doubt and then reversing it out with an extractor. It's good clean fun (okay, maybe not so clean). I know have gone before me to do the same. May the auto gods be with me when I perform this feat.
At any rate, if anyone can help, I need to know the name of the casing and part number if possible for that part in the picture below that goes around the stud seen in the picture and the nut on top:
