Why do you suspect (air intake) manifold? Can you smell petrol when the engine is running? If not, I do not understand why you suspect it.

Noisy exhaust is usually caused by holes in exhaust pipes, if the hole is between the engine and O2 sensor it may cause poor engine running. I would try to locate and fix the cause of exhaust noise first, it may fix all problems at once...

Don't think OP said it was the inlet manifold.

Exhaust manifold usually causes ticking from cold but goes when warmed up.
