When removing the exhaust from the 3.4L, did any of the bolts break?

None of the header bolts broke. I have to say, taking apart that motor so far has been like taking apart a brand new motor. KNOCK ON WOOD
Getting my clutch I think this week and should have the motor in at the end of the week if all goes good with gaskets and all that.

I am still waiting for parts from porsche. I am going to move forward and do what I can with out these parts. I took a picture of my flywheel. This is the flywheel out of my boxster. I just had it changed along with my clutch before I pulled the motor. I am no longer using the stock clutch but I will be using my stock flywheel. I took it out today and didn't realize that it had accumlated quite a bit of rust. Check out the photo below.
Before Photo.
I was pretty sure that I was going to have to buy a new one. 
I went out to my local hardware store and bought some #2 and #00 steel wool and some WD40. I started with the #2 and finished off with the #00. I think the results were great.
Let me know what you think. Do you think I need a new flywheel? Also does anyone know if I need new flywheel bolts? Do they stretch? Correct me if I am wrong, 90ftlbs tourque on the crank bolts and 25 ftlbs on the pressure plate bolts.
After Photo.

Replace the pilot bearing and it looks fine to me. Rust is fine it'll rust again.

Nice job cleaning up the flywheel.
If you need an extra pair of hands, send me a PM. I'm in Freeport, New York and I could shoot over there if you are stuck.
Regards, Maurice.

The pilot bearing is pressed out from the backside toward the front and pressed back in from the front. Similar to a wheel bearing, putting the new bearing in the freezer will aid in re-installation.
