Use the Probabilists' Hermite polynomials, rather than the differently scaled physicists' convention:Thus $H_2=x^2-1$, $H_3=x^3-3x$, and $H_5=x^5-10x^3+15x$. The cumulant-generating function of an exponential variable of mean $\theta$ is $-\log (1-\theta t)$ near zero, so its $r$th cumulant is $(r-1)!{\theta }^r$. Hence the standardized third and fourth cumulants are ${\rho }_3=2$ and ${\rho }_4=6$; the fourth is a cumulant, not the fourth raw central moment.

Write $F_n$ for the cumulative distribution function of the pivot in part (i). Its Edgeworth expansion, valid here because the exponential law is smooth, nonlattice and has exponential moments, isat the fixed endpoints $t=\pm z$. The coverage is exactly $F_n(z)-F_n(-z)$. Since $H_2$ and $\varphi$ are even, the $n^{-1/2}$ terms cancel; the two odd Hermite terms double. Consequently the symmetric Edgeworth coverage cancellation givesIn particular its coverage probability error is $\boxed{O(n^{-1})}$. This is a fixed-confidence-level expansion; it is not a uniform statement for normal cutoffs increasing with $n$.
