Default Are Disco I and II exhaust manifolds the same?

I have broken studs in my exhaust manifold, I am getting sick of the shop keep calling me and raising the price for fixing what they broke.
I was wondering if Disco I and II exhaust manifolds are the same? I just want to buy the manifolds and do the job myself and don't want to deal with the shop anymore.

Thanks for the quick reply, do I need to change the manifold to block gasket or I can use the old ones?

I would replace them, because they seem to be pretty cheap.

The gaskets and the bolts are supposed to be replaced anytime they are separated.

I can't get them locally, so I have to order them online. And I was thinking of getting used ones, not new manifolds. New ones are too expensive.

You can probably order gaskets locally from autozone, part number MS19613, but they are way over priced in that brand... about $40.

I wouldn't pay for NEW manifolds either. way too spendy for me. I was just using that link as way to see what it fits.

Exhaust manifold = Yes.
Upper and Lower Inlet manifolds = No.

Also make sure you have a good torque wrench that measures in ft lbs. I have taken these things apart and had them not torqued properly, which may have contributed to other problems developing.

Thank you man for the help.
I just had a little exhuast leak when car was cold, which I tried to fix and now this mess. I should have listened to spike
