I am not at all sure if there is such a thing. If an individual meets the criteria for Manufacturer, there is no transfer possible. If they don't meet those criteria, they are out of scope and a transfer is unnecessary.
My perspective on what's needed, is more accessible guidance from credible sources and active outreach to get guidance to the right places. Individuals who spend their spare time maintaining digital infrastructure should not need to fear this law, but clearly, in some cases they do.
kind regards, Maarten
