The manifolds go on with studs, because studs seal to the water jacket of the block. Just take off the nuts, install heat shield, and go.
But the bottom has a long stud in the fuel pump instead of one screw. Maybe you need a long screw cut off to make it all-thread, and a few nuts.
I make my own heat shields from stainless. And lately found some high temp insulation sock - gray silicone rubber over fabric. It is nominally 3/8", looks like a good fit over fuel line. How much can I sell for enough to make it worth our whiles? Hmmm, maybe I have an ebay idea. Watch this space?
