Forest formulas that generalize Zimmermann's forest formula in quantum field theory have been obtained for the computation of the antipode in the dual of enveloping algebras of pre-Lie algebras. In this work, largely motivated by Murua's analysis of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula, we show that the same ideas and techniques generalize and provide effective tools to handle computations in these algebras, which are of utmost importance in numerical analysis and related areas. We illustrate our results by studying the action of the pre-Lie exponential and the Magnus operator in the free pre-Lie algebra and in a pre-Lie algebra of words originating in free probability. The latter example provides combinatorial formulas relating the different brands of cumulants in non-commutative probability.
