Exhaust leak at the E. Manifold
 
I have a leak of exhaust at the manifold where it connects to the pipe below. It's a small leak. Do I just need a new gasket there or seal or something. I imagine I just need a new seal there but am unsure of the name of it's name.

How much for one of these (Seals), and can I install myself without any lifting the car or blow torch.?

Car is NA fully stock..

i suggest exhaust glue or a rtv that is good with heat.
if it did this in the first place its possible its not entirely flat.

The collector has two O-ring gaskets; they're quite inexpensive (maybe $5ea). Sure you can do it yourself as long as you can get the bolts loose. After 2 decades they're usually absolute monsters but soaking them with PB Blaster a couple times and then letting it soak in for a night usually helps.

Lol, ya got them and tried to take them off already.. Quite funny it was.. Haha! I am headed down to soak them again... Ugh, hope I get them off soon. Don't want to pay anyone to do it.. Maybe I should rent a power tool.. Thanks for the info and the link.

i would suggest a electric impact to remove, i dont like using power tools to put nuts and blots on, it can go wrong fast.
