Using 2 nuts works just as well if there is room. Tighten the two together and start backing out the inside nut (closer to the head). Since it doesn't have anywhere to go, it will turn the whole stud. I would try to drill it so you can remove the manifold and try this way if there is room. The vise grip method is a pain on your hands and might be harder to do with such a short stud.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
