I'm trying to find someone to help me get the broken bolt removed, and then assess whether I can still use the lower manifold. Regardless, I'm going to have to remove the intake manifold for further inspection and make room to drill out the broken bolt.
Here's food for thought. I talked to Juan@Fontana about the gasket adapters looking different, and it's because the old part number was 14032-JK20A, and the new one is 14032-JK21A. I don't mind that, but the gaskets aren't exactly alike! Not only did the color change from orange to grey, the gaskets look and feel a bit different (feels slightly thinner?). The contacting edge of the new gasket tapers to a sharp edge, and the original looked rounder and wider. I noticed the same with the TB gaskets.
Below is a cropped image. The left is my intake manifold and new gasket, and the right is from another member.
