Hi, I'm about to remove the intake head, I'm new at this, Is it hard to do? I have what i think is a fuel line that goes over the intake how do i remove it?

You don't remove it as it's part of the fuel rail setup. Remove the intake with the injectors / rails in place, unless you are removing the injectors for some reason. The fuel supply line connects to the fuel rail on the drivers side. Disconnect that from the fuel rail, ONLY after relieving the fuel pressure on the fuel rail at the schreider valve.

PS: Intake "MANIFOLD" and "HEADS" are two vastly different components.

Suggest you start your own threads for questions and keep to one post per subject to be able to follow responses. Especially, as you stated, not really knowing what you are doing. That thread you started re: the milky oil / overheat started this conversation and I would stick to that original.

search for a diagram or a book about the hemi engine.
It sounds like you are going in blind, and without much if any experience.

Is it the intake manifold or cylinder heads that you are trying to remove ?

What are you trying to accomplish ?

My radiator busted, it ran hot, i shut it off as fast as i could but ive got a brown sludge in my coolant now. I was told it was the engine oil coolant under the intake manifold but found out by the Dodge dealership that my truck don't have one.I checked the dip stick several times an it looks fine. Yes I'm new to this because i don't have the money for a mechanics repair cost so I'm trying learn as i go

test port on the fuel rail is a schreider valve. I have used an old refrigerant gauge set to see pressure / relieve it off the fuel rail.
No schrader valve on a hemi's fuel rail

As stated stick with your other post. You just make it confusing by having 2 threads going on the same issue.

Transmission breather line. It does not connect to anything. It is in the appropriate location
Oh Thank God!! It had me freaking out that something was missing. I am replacing the camshaft and lifters due to failure and found this while taking it apart. This is a "new to me" truck and there is already issues with it (which I hope to resolve). Thank you so much for the info!!!

Dang, I had the same question on mine. Thank you for asking so I didn't scour the internet for the next several hours trying to figure out what was missing on this truck. You're the Hero we needed!
