You need to pull the head and do this job right. Reinstalling with 7 bolts will eventually lead to a leak, and that's not a matter of "if," but when.

Not really when you look at the design of the manifold and the seal ... not much holds this thing in place .......

I really wanted to take out the breaking bolt out but i figure I put intake back on and see if it will leak since the broken bolt is in the middle. Third bolt from the front of the car passenger side. The worst that will happen is it will leak and if does I will fix it but honestly don't think it will. Time will tell
