Exhaust Manifold Leaks
Are these leaks large enough to worry about, or is this a normal amount of leakage before the manifolds heat up and seal to the heads? #8 looks like it's throwing soot onto the firewall. Does anyone have any ideas on how to narrow down if one port is leaking worse than the others? I don't think it's the manifold to up-pipe connection, and the y-pipe bellows and firewall insulation look clean.

You're losing boost pressure. I'd pull the manifolds and install manifold gaskets.

Yeah they probably won't seal 100% even when it's warmed up. Those are leaking a little more than I like to see.
I just did mine too but I replaced the manifolds also. They're not too much |

Thanks... Do any of ya'll happen to know the PNs for the bolts, spacers, gaskets, and the manifold-to-u-pipe bolts? Is that all I'll need, or do you think the manifolds themselves are warped past saving?

Here's the up pipe bolt and nut part numbers. Not sure on the manifold bolts. The manifolds will be fine.
