Can’t find parts for black series !
Running into a frustrating issue with my car and hoping for some ideas.
My dealership just called me and told me that the intake manifold was found to be leaking at the seams, so the entire intake needs to be replaced. The problem is the part is out of stock in both the US and Germany.
Is there aftermarket manifold for black series ?

This has the M156, correct? Yes, intake manifolds are getting hard to come by as theyre all disintegrating due to being Magnesium sitting on an aluminum block.
Keep searching all over the internet because they do pop up brand new or nearly new, but it's rare.

CLK63 BS
Keep in mind, this situation w/MB not keeping replacement parts in stock isn’t limited to low production models like a CLK BS. Own a 2015 W463 G wagon as well and it’s impossible to find a new steering box from MB. Very disconcerting. Not sure what would happen if any body parts on the CLK BS needed to be replaced. Think we’d definitely be SOL in that instance. GL w/your search.
