Turbo to manifold gasket!

Just a quick one is it possible to replace the gasket between the turbo and manifold without removing everything. If i undo the 13mm will it pull over far enough to slide it in. Just wondered so i know how much time i need to fit one as last owner i just bought it off forgot to put one in and it screamssss

Thanks in advance...

yes.

Thank you ill get it fitted in morning

The flexible pipe allows you to move it enough, I'd a said.
But getting the lower bolt undone and done up again involves a long thin 3/8" extension. And fiddling around with the old fingers!

Hopefully it all goes to plan as i cant take much more of the exhaust fumes and screaming

By the way, ensure the screaming isn't coming from a warped exhaust manifold, as they do this eventually and it is a whole mess of murder taking it off, getting it skimmed flat again, sorting out the broken and/missing studs.

Guess how i know!

Pretty rare for that gasket to fail tbh on any engine.
What engine is it?

Theres no gasket in there he forgot to replace it when refitting the manifold after having it skimmed thats how i know thats the issue.
You can also see the black building up around the joint

Also its the td5

Most likely only copper washers, remove them both and heat them red hot (with plumbing gas torch) and allow to cool and they can be used again.
If the are dowtys seals they will go again no issues.
