This was on a 9-5 and I am not familiar with the exhaust manifold on the 9-3SS range (yet). This was a known weakness on the 9-5 2.3lpt engines in the early years. The manifold itself was not too expensive but the manhours to remove the broken stud seemed to be the most expensive. I have not read of such a problem with the 9-3SS engines but there is always the first. I learned that you can detect where the leak is on the 9-5 from the coffee brown stain that occurs there. Hope this helps.
