Exclamation 2004 Cavalier T-stat Location....

Hello everyone, I am in need of a little help. where is the thermostat housing located on the 2004 cavalier w/auto trans? I cannot find a good diagram that shows the location. Just that it is on the backside of the engine. also all the changing instruction I have found include taking the exhaust manifold off. This is not something I want to do if I can change it without removing the manifold. As you know the exhaust manifold bolts tend to get rusted. If I should happen to break one off I am screwed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pictures would also be a big help. Thanks.
