All are torque to 58Nm plus 90°.
Just sayin'.

I was able to get my midpipes out without removing anything else.
I won't say it was easy, but I think it was easier than taking everything else apart.
I had to bend up a strip of steel to stick up between one of the copper nuts and the pipe, to jamb it in place and stop it from spinning.
I also used lots of extensions.
