Re: What will happen when the lower intake manifold leaks coolant?
There is an updated valve cover that is offered ... but not really needed. I don't believe the cover has to come off to make the lower manifold more accessible.

Be sure to use RTV on the "joints" of the lower gasket set. You'll know what I mean once you're in there. Remember all those bolts only require 7 - 8 ftlb of torque ... not much ... easy to snap them off.

I agree with removing the cowling. Look in Haynes (chap 13 ???) to see how.
