Does the v6 3.0 have flange gaskets from exhaust manifold to pipe or is it just steel on steel? Also the pipe that connects to the manifold on the other end connects to a y pipe which goes down to cat. No gasket or donute there either. Is there anything I am suppose to put in there or is it just steel on steel. It’s a bell type connection.
