Propane powered cannon made out of Heavy wall plastic drain pipe or similar. Use a pipe big enough to handle a beer can full of dry sand as a projectile.

Re: Drilling holes in exhaust manifold

Run the engine while drilling, partially block the exhaust pipe to add to the pressure and that will blow the swarf back out past the drill. (in theory!!) then the grease trick with the Tap. no need to up the rpm, you dont want the turbo spinning to quick if bits DO migrate down past the turbine.
