Might sound daft but is there a certain way to get an old vtr manifold out? Doesn't seem room and I'm stuck and now it's raining haha

Can be awkward with the fuel rail left in, part from that being in the way, just a case of removing sensors and bolts, throttle cable, and vacum hose :)

After undoing everything, tilt it and lower it underneath the car and pull it out that way with the car jacked up. Be careful not to damage radiator.

Oil filter and alternator are in the way. I'm splitting the cat from manifold. Should do it then

I managed to do it just with a bit of wiggling to get it out from under the car with everything else still on.
