Yes it is.
Remove the intake manifold and take it to a welding shop that works with aluminum. Let them determine if it can be saved or not.
Iron Intake to Iron Heads - 40ft lbs Aluminum Intake - 25ft lbs
An aluminum manifold typically weighs significantly less than a cast iron intake manifold. While an aluminum manifold may weigh around 10 to 25 pounds, a cast iron intake manifold can weigh anywhere from 30 to 70 pounds or more, depending on the design and size. This weight difference contributes to improved engine performance and efficiency, as aluminum reduces the overall weight of the vehicle.
Yes it did.
on top of the aluminum intake manifold, back near the firewall.
45, for an iron intake, 35 for aluminum.
It is between the black intake tube (plastic) and the intake manifold (aluminum part on top of the engine)

Here is the installation instructions for the Edelbrock Performer aluminum intake manifold for a Ford 351M/400...hope it helps out. http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_new/misc/tech_center/install/2000/2171.pdf
It is bolted to the back of the aluminum intake that is connected to the block. Its location is behind the plenum.
the edelbrock website should have that info.
