Any Muffler shop can help, Chrysler used a lot of deformable graphite doughnuts in the 80's-90's that will fit.

The diagram in the parts listing wasn't useful to you? As 64Avanti said the crushable ring gaskets are available.

I had the exact same problem on a brand new exhaust system. I finally got out the hacksaw and cut right through the weld 80% through. I made the cut on the side that needed to close up. If you run feeler gauges around the bolted up flange that leaks (make sure you have both ends bolted), you will see which side is the widest. That is your hinge side (the part you don't cut). I bolted the pipe backup on both ends and measured the new gap. Pulled it out, set the gap and welded it with a MIG. I bolted it up and now no problems with it leaking. The other end is another story.
