Just torqued the head down and noticed that the exposed threads above the nuts are consistent on all studs except for the last rear stud on the manifold side....seems like their is twice the number of exposed thread above the nut on that rear stud. This has me concerned. Any thoughts?

It is not a problem unless you run out of threads to tighten the nut. It looks like we are getting close to another run test...good luck!
