I have an exhaust leak at the muffler clamp. it is tight. is there some type of gasket that can fit in there to give better seal. I do not want to cobble it up but would like something that will work with the existing clamp.

I have used furnace cement when both the front pipe and manifold were damaged ---and to patch a cracked manifold ----and to make repairs to gas grille burner (wet toothpick to make gas holes, tin can for big areas)

Just get a tube of silicone muffler sealer and put a small bead on the exhaust manifold and the flange and carefully bring them together and clamp it tight. Worked on a lot. Of our club cars.
