I lost a lot of stuff in the engine bay.

I lost a lot of stuff in the engine bay while changing the glow plugs, due to bad tools and bad light.How do i get them back?

I thought that I could do it as well, but my intake is going to need to come off. I was able to do the #1 and #6 so far, but that is it. Helps to have a swivel socket!
Unfortunately for me, three of my intake bolts are stripped (my own fault) but within the next week it WILL come off!! Then I'll get the others.

Basically, just unhook the battery and for each plug you will need to first unscrew the GP wire nut, which I believe was 10 mm (or around there) and after that is off, you can undo the plug. Mine didn't give me any trouble coming out. It's pretty straight forward, I'd say the worst part is getting the manifold off / contorting yourself with it on. Be careful not to drop anything into the engine bay, like I did with my reamer. It is not sitting lodged into a crevace next to my starter.
