my ute seems to have a gas leak coming from the left side or passengers side is it possabul to remove the heat exchanger to get at the exhaust manafold while still in the van

come on gang can it be done i really don't want to drop the motor to do it

Don't understand the question....Assuming stock type IV, can you remove the muffler in car...yes, depending on towbar fitted and clearance, can you remove the heaterbox in car...yes, after the muffler is off.

The prob with your question is the heat exchanger IS the exhaust manifold.

Hope this helps
