Exhaust Updates
As it turns out, the overlap is missing, rotted away. The header pipe is missing about 4cm, and when trying to take the pipes of, they snapped off on top, while the brackets remained stuck. On the collector side another 4cm broke off as well, exactly where the header goes in. So much for fixing it, replacing is the only option now.
