There's just the one bolt that secures the dipstick tube - once removed it just pulls out - get a good grip and pull straight up.

You either 'feel' for it, or use 2 people, one underneath to guide it in. You can see the hole but you really need good light.

I took the one 15mm head bolt off and pulled it right out.

I tied a rope around the dipstick so i could jerk it out.

The tube has some give in it. Just pull it out of the way and pull the manifold. Once the manifold's out, you can see where it goes in and just pull it out. After my headers were in, I was able to see the dipstick hole from the top of the car and just stuck it back in there.
