I took pictures of my exhaust manifold to y-pipe connection on the drivers side. There is a large gap inbetween the each half, The bolt looks basically useless. Is this my exhaust leak? And in between is that a gasket that I would need to replace? I'll eventually be doing headers but in the meantime I'll just get a new gasket and a new bolt and tighten that back together... If this is what I'm seeing

What would the gasket p# be and what size bolt would I need?
Thanks in advance,

I don't recall there being any gasket there

 

I didnt feel around in there to see what that was made of but it sort of looked like a gasket from the angle i was seeing it at... But don't those pictures look odd in the way that they arent fastened together? is this how theyre supposed to be?

 

No. That's how it is supposed to look, minus all the rust which is normal.

 

alright thanks
