Wife's 2008 V70 3.2. The short coolant hose on the oil cooler below the oil filter is leaking badly. I can get to one of the bolts from underneath but for the other I need to remove the intake manifold to get to it. I watched a video on complete intake manifold removal but is it possible to just remove the upper section by removing the two torx bolts at the front near the cooling fan and then the bolts mounting it to the head? Looking down between the intake runners I can see the bolt I need to get to if the upper part of the manifold were not in the way. It looks like this is possible to access the oil filter / cooler block and the alternator but I'm not sure. Rather not have to go through removing the entire manifold, throttle body, etc.

Thanks,

Erwin in Memphis
