Default Help on taking off Intake Manifold

Decided on polishing my intake manifold.

Started taking off all the fun bolts and stuff and got dark so I decided to stop for the night. Noticed a few screws that I think are going to be a pain to take out. Any body have any input on how to get to these back to screws that sit at the rear of the intake manifold on the lower portion??

Here is a picture to kind of give you an idea the area where it is located.

Well talked to a tech today on the phone and he said it is easier to just take off the entire manifold. Upper and lower then remove the upper remaining bolts when off. This is the way they change the starters he said and they can have the complete manifold off starter changed and back on in a lil over an hour... Wel that is good to know as well incase I ever need to fix my starter.

Now I just got to be sure I can get this dang lower section off.
