Hi, I have a '68 Ford 3400 3cyl gas tractor with vertical exhaust. I have an exhaust leak between the adapter pipe (number 42 on the new holland parts site drawing) and the manifold. The New Holland website does not show any gasket or clamp to provide a seal between these two parts. Am I missing something?
 
No gasket or clamp. If been replaced lately may be small. The one from almost rite are either too loose or wont go at all. Is tang in notch? Manifold may be wallowed .

Thanks for the response. I replaced the manifold with a knockoff new one. The transition pipe is old and rusty, maybe that is why it is loose. Just got a replacement today, it is much tighter. I haven't tried to force it in yet. Any advice? I don't want to crack the cast iron by pounding the pipe in too hard.
 
Just to wrap this up, I installed the pipe and all is well. I used a scrap of 2x4 and a hammer and it went in fine. Thanks for the help.
