The clutch & pulley don't need to be removed. There's plenty of room.

I think that the manifold is left on to prevent oil spillage, and later on it's nice to have it removed so you can oil the new compressor. I removed my compressor first, then the manifold, then installed them as a unit. I think it's nice to pull the manifold so you can get everything really clean and install the new sealing washers on the bench, then add oil.
