Didn't notice that.... I would probably get some back in there.... IIRC they are studs.
You may want to get an inspection mirror and see if they broke or just worked their way out.
I would check the bottom also.
My guess would be broke....

I ordered some LT Headers and they came in not long ago...
I used a bolt in the kit and it threaded threw, also used my phone and used the recorder to see inside and it looked clear. But again I wont know till they are fully off. after I get out to WTX and get into the bunk house then it will be put into a shop to have the install done.
Atleast all others are intact still :-)
Thanks for your help!!
I dont understand how this year of truck has so many common problems..

These manifolds are absolute junk. I went thru this crap with my 4.6 Explorer. At least there is room to do the job on the F150.
