 It should.  But it all depends on access.  The inductive heater I've seen is unwieldy and not a good candidate for placing around an exhaust manifold nut.  But that is not what it was designed to do.  If there is a small-format inductive heater it should work as well as an oxi torch without the collateral heating effects with that approach.
BTW and oxi torch works wonders.  I've used it to remove broken-off studs from cast iron manifolds with zero collateral damage.  (Of course I replace with grade-8 studs and anti-seize.  No more issues going forward.)

Has anyone used an inductive heat unit to remove corroded nuts?  Curious how they worked out.  Of course, if you go to you tube they work great...

These would open to allow manifold heat to warm intake on initial start-up.  Hard to find today - garage sales, older repair shops, etc - but if this didn't break it loose, it was normally torch time.  Ted (who jealously guards his last can of Mopar Heat Riser Solvent)
