My 07 Titan has a cracked exhaust manifold on the driver's side, over 200,000 milles. Any experience turning those bolts out without breaking?

I had the same problem and same worries on my 2006. Rather than try the bolts, I got a mini grinder and opened the crack up about 1/8” wide and deep. Then filled it with JB Weld. That was last September and so far no problems or noise. If you can’t get a mini grinder in there, try cleaning the area and cover it with the JBW. I’ve also used “Gas Tank Repair” 2-part epoxy putty on heads, intake and freeze plugs So that could work for you too. It sets quickly and the heat really hardens it.
keep us posted on your fix!
