exhaust manifold 2003 f150

[Farley]

leaking exhaust manifold. Rusty studs. i know I'm probably going to have to replace the studs and nuts with SST, thinking about tackling this myself but if I dont what should I expect to pay (ballpark) for a mechanic to do it? Just trying to weigh my options here.

Right side is 1.5, left side is 2.2, both is 3.0 hours. The studs break off, and would be smart to replace all studs and nuts. Usually they come out without much problems, some can be a pain in the but.

Thanks.
