Removing Intake manifold at 67k (pictures)

Thought I would post these for interest sake. I had a weistec catch can installed on my 2012 C63 p31 at 67k miles. Bolt by pvc snapped and we had to remove the intake manifold to replace and install can correctly. Here are the pictures of manifold and ports. Looks to me like there is no carbon buildup and the ports are super clean at 67k miles!

These pictures were taken prior to my Weistec catch can being installed.

That bolt on my PCV was super tight as well. I was worried it would snap so I used some penetrating oil and waited a while. Moved it back and forth slowly and I eventually got it out safely. Did you have to drill it out?

yup and put a nice sleeve there so it should never happen again.
