Without having seen a new age exhaust manifold up close, it sounds like an O2 sensor. If so, the sensor will have a six to eight inch wire, with a plug on the end where it connects to the loom. Find plug, disconnect, job done

greasemonkey is right.

Trace the wire over a cross member near to the gearbox, unplug, hold the zaust section in a vice and deffo use a ring spanner to undo the sensor !

Mine was sooooo tight that I had to heat it up, once warmed through the lamda sensor came out easily.
