exhaust leak

[mysavioreigns]

As I stated in an earlier post, I've got an exhaust leak. I can see/feel the area. It's a "crack" sorta - in between the intake and exhaust manifolds. Rather than getting an all new manifold (at the moment) I would hope to find something to cover this with. A temporary solution is all I'm looking for, to pass inspection. I was thinking some kind of JB Weld? Not too sure, any ideas? Thanks

I dont think anything easy or cheap will hold up to the heat for long. My 200 had a small crack in it and I thought about trying to do something to patch it. Decided to order a complete new exhaust system and a new manifold to go with it as long as I was at it. When I pulled the thing I found a huge crack in the back and the start of 2 more. Also the tube for the choke was melted out so bad I could pick parts of it out with my bare fingers. It may still be layin in my junk pile, I should try and snap a few pics just to show what a 'small crack' looks like.
