Middle stud on intake manifold hard to reach

Hey, folks. When reassembling the engine on my '93 Honda Civic DX, I always end up having to leave the nut off the middle intake manifold bolt. The space it's in is too small to reach down with my fingers and get it started on the threads. I've tried reaching down through the manifold, reaching behind it, numerous universals and extensions. Hell, I've even had my gf (who has really small hands) try to get to it. All to no avail. Anybody run into this before and have any creative solutions? Here's a pic of the stud...
