You can also turn them till they snap..the captive nuts in the manifold drive out w/ moderate effort.

Thanks. Some more WD-40 and a 6-point swivel socket broke the bolt loose. I think the captive nut is no longer captive, and is spinning with the bolt. I thought of wedging something in there to keep it from turning, but the space is so tight, even though I can now move the pipe around a little. I can barely get my fingers up to the manifold flange.
