Default E60 530D M57N...Exhaust Manifold Replacement

Has anyone had the pleasure of replacing the exhaust manifold on theirs and whats best replacement to go for - I'll be going cast iron this time but is it better to go with a...

  • OEM E39/E46 zort mani (Are they the same even)
    • Will these need any mods or direct like
    • Gaskets the same?
  • One of those new cast off shelfers like these:

In relation for the fitting, seen a few approaches...but is it easier via top (looks like stripping allot more out mind) or from underneath (seems less to remove but bit blind...sure theres other woes)

Ta in advance!
