On other engines, I have seen a warped flange on the exhaust tee
that can be trued up with a mill or belt sander...Herb

That reminds me.
I have truing bars for the aircooled and water cooled Rotax aircraft
engines.
Might not hurt to have a machine shop true the mating surface of the
manifold.

I found the best way to seal the exhaust was to loosen the head nuts before
doing up the exhaust bolts then retough the heads and barrels . This makes
sure the exhaust ports line up square with the exhaust manifold giving the
best seal.
