exhaust manifold gasket?

Post by sierraspider »

I need to fix an oil leak that appears to be coming from the exhasust manifold. It's my understanding that some (all) of the bolts/studs need to be sealed because they extend into oil passage on head. I've looked for a gasket for this everywhere and couldn't find one for the manifold to head. Is there a gasket for this if not, what's the best way to install to prevent leaks (oil and air)'

Thanks

Dan

the leak is from the studs that go into the head, it's usually a case of cleanig and putting a thread lock/tape type of material to prevent the leak, not specifcally a gasket.
