Default 1.8t AEB exhaust manifold leak

Hi ! Did find a leak from the exhaust manifold. I have placed an arrow on the leak, i cannot see it, because its on the back.

Have any other have this leak ? What will you say its the problem ?
Loose bolt, or crack or defektive gasket ?

Is it easy to take of ?

The washer next to the arrow is also loose, i can turn it around. Maybe the nut is just loose, and i just can tightening it ?

I also see that two of the bolts is longer than the last one, is that normal ?

The turbo has been replaced 20.000km ago.

As this is a mostly USA-centric forum, and the C5 A6 was not shipped to the USA with that particular engine, you might be better served by asking your question in the forum for that engine.
