Re: exhaust leaks

It's not likely that a gasket "slipped" as they are held in place by the studs and really can't slip. The gasket or gasket ring between the manifold and exhaust pipe is a good bet to check, that's a fairly common point of leakage. Just feel around it with your hand while the engine is running, you should be able to feel the leak.

When you had the manifolds off, did you have them surfaced or at least checked with a good straight edge? Warpage not uncommon after all this time.
