I used aluminum foil and band clamps. I folded it enough times that it was thick enough to hold up.

i have an off road pipe that i swap out with the cat converter when emissions are due. The pipe and cat have flanges and bolt holes so i can swap it out fairly quickly. If you have this type of connection, you can buy gaskets for it or you can use a RTV high temp silicone sealant.
