Any ideas on why in the world this thing is designed like this, w/ the allen bolt sunk in there? Why not just a regular hole and 12-14mm bolt like everything else?

The allen head bolt is used so the manifold can be removed with the fuel rail & injectors attached. It would be impossible to do that with a standard bolt.

& yes, stock is 6mm allen, I just bought one from the dealer.
