Realoem.com or bmwfans.info will provide all the info you need for this sort of thing, and you can get the pieces from BMW cheaply.

Manifold to downpipe nuts are special copper coated nuts, with the (spanner) size of the nut being smaller than you would normally expect for a nut that fits the bolt it screws onto.
The nuts and bolts that join the two halves of the exhaust together are ordinary M8 nuts and bolts. They can be replaced with stainless steel versions, but it's easier to use ordinary ones, and just cut them off with a disc between the flanges whenever you want to remove them.
