Hey, sorry if this has been answered already.
After driving down a bumpy road, my 97 sierra got an awful exhaust leak.
It is coming from where the manifold meets the exhaust pipe on the passenger side.
At first I thought it was the donut gasket, but the exhaust shop informed me that the exhaust pipe has actually squished and started pulling through the flange, and quoted me $1600 to fix it.
If anyone has run into this before, or has any suggestions of a cheaper way to fix it, I'm all ears!
