the coolant pipe and the 2 rear block offs should be it. suggestion, take the vac line off of the brake booster, and follow it to the back of the manifold, there is your oil pressure sender, dont break it, you have to lift the hose up over it. also get four pieces of fuel line, and cut them in one inch sections, then cut them open so when you lossen the 4 rear most bolts, slide the fuel line pieces over the bolts to hold them up, as they can not be fully removed due to the cowl, less fumbleing. good luck.

I like the fuel line trick. I used a bit of tape and just took it off, then the bolts fall. Next time its fuel line for me....
