Exhaust manifold

Does anyone know if the MGF or standard Rovers have the sane exhaust manifold as the elise I think the threads on the lambda hole are a wee bit dodgy on mine.

Does anyone have a spare manifold??
After stripping my lambda hole I put half of the old lambda back in, which mananged to get a thread and filled it with exhaust paste.
Runs ok but a bit rich. so tomorrow will be fine if a bit stinky.

I will probably get the old manifold helicoiled but having a spare on hand would be good.

Does anyone have experience of taking the exhaust manifold off?? What are the studs like? do they have a tendancy to break / strip / shear?
