For those having trouble locating the third M10, it's there, even on the newer engines (mine is a 2013) but it's completely obscured by the water pipe. The middle bolt is also unable to be pulled until the water pipe is moved out of the way. I found it necessary to remove the positive cables on the driver side of the engine to get enough room. I'm still working on this but I just need to get the extended T30 and I should have this off. For anyone considering doing this, give it to a mechanic if you can afford it. I'd have stopped 2 hours in if my mechanic wasn't out of town for two weeks. I've been doing an engine out overhaul on my 964 911 for the last two weeks so I figured I'd tackle this myself. How hard could it be? In short, it's an awful job. This engine is designed by somehow who put zero thought in being able to work on the car. Many of the bolts required contorting myself or various lines to just barely manage to get it out. I have no idea how I'm getting it back in. For reference, here's the two M10 on the back of the engine. The top one I thought was the target, it's not. It's the bottom one you need to remove.
