Default oil dipstick

after you take the bolt out from the side does it just pull out?

Yes, it just pulls out. You might have to get under the car and gently pry on the end so it will pop out. When reinstalling, be sure to check it under the car again to make sure it is popped back in.

it slides right up and out. It comes out pretty easy so be careful not to bend it or else it will be a bitch to put back in.

Yes it slides out and when you are installing it back in be sure to put in back of the wires as it was when you removed it. Also make sure the o ring is lubricated and still on it.

Yes undue the 15 mm bolt and out it comes, anyone that has done headers has had to have done this.It is easier to re-install if you can get under the car to align the tube back in
