Though sheer incopetence, I have destroyed the exhaust gasket. I have a replacement gasket on on order. Does anybody have an idea of a substitute I can rig and use until the replacement part comes in the mail? Thanks.
Exhaust Gasket Replacement?

That worked fine for me too, when my long poo poo pipe arrived without a gasket.
I use the cardboard gasket paper from the auto store, smeared with orange high-temp rtv on both sides. Working pretty darn well.
(tried without the rtv and I just blew gaskets left and right)

This one works really well just coat it in a little rtv orange wand it's sold at most auto parts stores make sure to match it to your exhaust port use fine snips with a fine tip
and it's under $3.00

So my exhaust gasket corroded and I tried the ol duct tape fix..that melted really fast but I did notice a significant reduction in exhaust noise. Then the gasket broke again and it was back to being a weed whacker..I will just buy a proper gasket.
I have used gasket paper with high temp silicone . It works for a while , should last as long as it takes to get your new one .
