Yes, those 4 into one headers are a pain; even the original were one piece, but had a "Y" pipe at the end, so we would cut the flange between 1 and 2 as well as 3 and 4 so they would be much easier to install.
I just finished rewelding and brazing many of the old headers since the two-into-one headers are no longer available.
Keep at it and don't forget to use the 12mm hex head nuts(VW uses them) to get around those tight spaces.
