If I recall the sealant used on my exhaust flange to head was the color grey and seemed as though it had hardened. Not like a silicone hard but spongy but hard like glass. This same sealant may have been used on a fitting going into a water passage of the intake manifold. I mean the headers were stuck to the head with no bolts and with a few bumps they seperated. There was hardly any residue to clean off and whatever they used sealed excellent with no leaks.

No, you were clear Blas... I just wondered if it lasted with the extreme heat that conection sees... That's cool (no pun inteded) if it does...
I've always used the gaskets at the header to sidepipe connection and never had a problem. I also ALWAYS used fresh Grade-8 bolts and nuts every time I change those out too!!! With the extreme heat at the point, it even changes the character/hardness of the nuts & bolts at that connection, and if you re-use them, they WILL loosen up with the second use and you will have leaks.

I have so many recommendation related notes regarding header/sidepipe bolts in my collection its scary...
The Remflex Gaskets have had great reviews from those using them...
