Default rear exhuast leak at manifold gasket help

I recently found out I'm leaking exhaust pretty bad at the rear exhaust manifold gasket. I've talked to a couple shops (not the stealership) and one shop particular said to ask if the front motor mount is removed can it be rocked foreward enough to get at it to repair it. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated : -)

in order to remove the rear manifold you must remove the rear coil packs, plug wires, valve cover. makes it alot easier.

Okies thanks ill let them know. They originally thought the engine had to be lowered out which is more labour intense. Thanks again!
