the broken 1 only has like 2 threads if that showing , is that enough to get a bite on it?

Probably not, I must've missed that. What you need to then is have a nut welded to the remains of the stud, is that possible? If not, those manifolds are not that hard to remove, just take the manifold out and try to do it on a bench or take it to a machine shop.

No problem man, I'll be right over, lol. It would be best for you to do have a nut welded to the remains of the stud, then work it in, then out-sounds dirty-as long as it's not rotted (which I doubt by year and condition of your car) it should be a have to remove the manifold, it's not as hard as it looks, most of the bolts are removed with a wrench and you can loosen the mount and jack up the engine to get some more room.
