Okay, you talked me into it. Gasket set on order. As I recall, the slant 6 has a shim-stock gasket around the heat riser pocket, so it doesn't take much for it to leak. If it's been blowing past for a while and the surface is eroded, what do you recommend, short of a new manifold? In the past I've used everything from orange RTV to black asbestos furnace cement for mickey-mouse repairs of exhaust flanges and none of it held up very well.
