I haven't seen one myself on the forum, but i would just take my time and start disassembling it myself. Juts don't rush it and pay attention to what you doing. Do some more searching and maybe you will find a couple tips or tricks that may help.
Good luck with the project

You can find the manual and look for the intake manifold assembly. From there just figure out which bolts need to be taken off. It's pretty simple, but make sure you don't strip the bolts in the back of the IM because it's a pain getting back there. The operation is straight forward and you shouldn't have no problems getting it out.

It's pretty straight forward... just don't forget the dipstick bolt/four bolts on the support bracket under the IM... take the sensors off that support brace BEFORE you loosen the four 14mm bolts though.

Do i need to release the fuel pressure by uncliping the fuel harness in the back seats? Or drain the coolant?

pretty simple start off by removing the fuel rail and injecotors and just disconnect all vacuum lines and sensors and start removing all the bolts that connect the manifold to the cylinder head.
