So my question is, does the manifestation count as an unarmed attack?
By that I mean, let's say I take a dip into Monk for the martial arts feature, can I make the attack as a bonus action unarmed attack?
"When you use the Attack action with an unarmed strike or a monk weapon on your turn, you can make one unarmed strike as a bonus action. For example, if you take the Attack action and attack with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven’t already taken a bonus action this turn."
So I take any of the natural manifestations, like the tail, can I make 2 attacks with the Attack action and another attack as a bonus action with the tail again at LVL 6? Or do I only make the 2 tail attack and then a d4 as a bonus action? Or none at all?

They are natural weapons, not unarmed strikes, and so what you suggest doesn't work (I believe that is right. I'm very sorry if not).
