Exhaust manifold and helicoils

I have a few td exhaust manifolds. The turbo and mounting bolt locations are through holes. There are 3 other locations that have the remains of bolts in them. Rusty nasty nubs of metal. They look like they will be a super *** to get out. I am thinking they would need to be drilled and helicoiled. What are these 3 additional locations for-what bolts up there, and are they needed? Would I be better off grinding them flush and calling it good?

Thanks Andrew. I will be using the 1.9 intake. It looked like, from a quick glance, that the shield was mounted to the intake. Does it also bolt on to the exhaust manifold, or is that just a 1.6 configuration?
