Re: lower intake
I would try to get everything back exactly where it started out ... use a torque wrench to tighten everything back up. And then, start over. As written, drain coolant before removing lower manifold. It can be tricky to get those manifold gaskets just right ... took me twice to stop coolant leaks.
As long as you don't remove the synchronizer, front cover, chain ... etc; you should not need to establish TDC. I have noticed that that particular Haynes needed some editing. I think they muddled the overhaul section with the lower intake manifold removal section. Guess they have "late nights" like the rest of us.
