Default SC300 intake mani removal

so far i've got the Y section, EGR, and all the bolts on the manifold bolts off except for the runners. i'm stuck on the manifold, i could move it back and forth and what not but i can't pull it off..i see a bracket that is connected to some black vacuum pipe that is used to be part of the EGR. is there a bolt hidden somewhere that i don't see or is there a certain why to take it off?

Hate to revive an old threat but its better than starting a new thread, and trust me I've searched. 704 once you got that manifold stay off you were able to take off the runners? I'm right at this point and I'm sure you know how much of a pain this is.

iirc there are a few nuts and bots that you can't see looking from the top. you'll just have to use your hands to feel for them.
