Yup
The inlet manifold comes off pretty straight forward as does the fuel rail.
Thanks heavens the IM isn't on the rear next to the firewall it would be a different story all together.

Some more bits like this would be good eg water pump replacement, alternator replacement , etc , reasonable simple stuff like that so others maybe able to save a few $ and learn a few things and build their confidence rather then be a "credit card Mechanic" and let someone else do all the work and there for get a greater understanding of what they are in control of when on the road.

The hardest part of removing the inlet manifold is the single bolt right down the bottom underneath the plenum.
My suggestion is to not bother putting it back in
