Think of it like this-- When you dealer ordered your headers for the Z/28, did they give you the exhaust manifolds? Nope.

Not trying to get off on a tangent but the above is not a true statement. A '67 or '68 Z-28 that was ordered with factory supplied headers, would have had both the exhaust manifolds and the headers supplied with the car. The manifolds would have been installed on the engine and it was up to the owner or dealership to install the headers themselves. I bought my green '67 Z from the original owner and it was ordered with the headers and the owner verified that he had the headers installed and he gave me the original manifolds and section of exhaust pipe which was removed to make way for the headers. They were like brand new. The original window sticker verified the car was a RPO Z28BD, which was a factory header and cowl plenum car. Both air cleaners also came with the car. The chrome open element one on the engine and the cowl plenum stuff in the box. No malice intended here. Just setting the record straight.
