I would definitely recommend removing the intake manifold for a couple of good reasons... First is that the end seals will almost certainly be damaged if you try to leave it in place. Not while taking it apart, but while trying to wiggle a head back into place while there is nothing but gravity holding the manifold in place. Just about guaranteed to move. Second is gasket and seal integrity. Back when those engines were popular, it was a well known flat-rate trick to pull ONE head without pulling the intake. The tricky part was getting the head, intake gasket, and head gasket all lined up without damaging one of them. It could be done, but it was tricky. I did a few that way.

There were a few other flat-rate tricks that were used back in the day, but most were risky and didn't really save much.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
