So my rear spark plug quit last season, that was easy enough to replace. There are some videos on removing the front w/o rotating the engine. My only problem is removing the air intake snorkel. I cant seem to feel the bolt that holds it in anywhere and the manual doesn't have anything either. Any help would be appreciated.

So, so..!

Yes, as I recall the manual does state where the fastener is.
If you reach up from under the front end, to the left of the snorkel, as I recall, there is a "body" mount type screw on the left side near the opening, outside (not inside). It goes into the front of the frame.
You really can't see it, without maybe a mirror and a flashlight, but in general, yea, it's up there.

Just feel around up there, you'll feel it.
