#1 detachable primary leaking (Jet hot headers)

Does anyone else have a problem with leaks where the slip on Jet hot header primary is? I've been chasing header leaks (absolutely annoying) and there seems to be some leaking occurring there.

Has anyone tried using a band clamp there? Any luck?

I just used some exhaust sealant goop on there and it hasnt leaked in years. I'd try that before a band clamp.
