It's common that one or more of the 4 long studs in exhaust manifold break off.
This will slowly lead to that the exhaust gasket is pushed sideways and a fluttering exhaust noise can be heard more and more, especially when cold.
Two of them are fairly easy to get to and drill out but the other are more difficult.
It also take a shop that know what they are doing and have drilled out studs before. It can turn real ugly if they are not on top of their game.
