I have the downpipes off (hopefully for the last time) to fix remaining leaks from previous owner's welding mess.
There were no gaskets between the header flange and the downpipe flange (3 bolts).
Is there supposed to be one?
If so, I need to get my hands on it asap (part number maybe?) and even have to consider a run to the stealership.

 

You need to get yourself a pair of these. Then find the welder and slap him.

 

Agreed ^. But make sure you use the back of your hand since it's discipline
