John,
My MK111 has the 2 rubber bushings at the frame also. I dropped the pipes off to a welder in Mesa today. He's going to clean up the existing welds, and slide a large plate over the flange ( a small cut out ) and then weld the whole plate in place with weld plugs. My heat shields should cover the whole area..........I hope ! And thanks guys for your input.
