I think they just pull out, they sit in rubber seals

They can be very difficult to remove especially if the rubber seals have gone hard.  Just don't tug on the injector lines. Keep pulling at them.

Yep just pop out, but don't pull on the pipe.

if the sleeves are damaged (plant pot looking things in inlet manifold)
you'll not get them out without taking manifold off....be very careful

i busted 2 injectors. luckily the ends didn't fall inside head
