Hi All,

Im on the road having a bit of an issue. The center exhaust manifold bolt
hole (in the head) has broken and there's no way to tighten the bolt. The
noise from the resulting leak has gotten really bad.

If I get another gasket, should the remaining bolts hold the manifold well
enough to seal? Also, what gasket would be best for this?

We're in the middle of a road trip in Oregon, so I'm hoping for a fix that
will at least hold til I get back to Santa Cruz.

Thanks,
Steve Thomas
