Dennis,
Without going through the thread of emails.  Did you find a gasket or tin?  If not, let me look through my T3 boxes.  Will get back to you.

Charlie

thin alum flashing sheet and I also have some much thicker than normal alum
foil. Standard alum >foil doesn't hold up well. If you do this at the same
time as you install the muffler, you can also put some muffler paste in
there, but muffler paste by itself >won't hold up.

Copper" from Permatex. It might not be the "correct way" to fix this, but it
does work. : )

We have fixed now. We just took our wire welder and filled in the low spots
then grinded it down smooth and even to where the doughnut gasket fits snug.
