Default Intake Manifold tug of war

I'm a novice mechanic and this is my first post so please bear with me. I'll keep it short and to the point. I just removed the five bolts to the upper intake manifold so I can change the gasket but it won't come out. Are there hoses or other attachments to the U/manifold that I must take off before I can remove it?

Thanks in advance for your reply,

Mike

On my 3.0, the #3 rocker arm had to come out first.

Thanks for reply...figured it out. Discovered a sixth bolt tucked: behind the intake manifold that wasn't visible from a drivers side view.
