You can use the inlet manifold from the 2.0 16v - alloy casting won't crack like the 2.3 16v plastic one.

Hi Peter
Just a quick note.
Got around to fitting the manifold yesterday and while it cured the water leak alas I still have my misfire ....argh.
One thing was a little strange It had no brass threaded bits for the thermostat but I cut them out of the old one and its fine.
Head/Head gasket next stop...if that fails a gallon of thinners and a box of matches 
I have to add I am just kidding before some health and safety enthusiast chimes in
Thanks again Peter
John

Probably a Galaxy manifold - they don't use that part of the manifold so the inserts aren't fitted.
