hi. i had my car at the mechanics last week, because i wanted him to cut my old flex pipe out and weld another on. he said he couldnt because there was something in the way, preventing him from doing so. he said it was some sort of gasket or something. something metal i think. does anybody what hes talking about?? i have to go buy this piece and i have to know what to ask for. PLEASE HELP!!.my car sounds like richard simmons getting anal raped by a weed-wacker.lol. i need this fixed!!

I had the same issue and had a shop cut out the flexible part and weld a new flex pipe section into the factory pipe with no problem. The shop said the rest of the pipe was still good and this cost about half what it would have cost to replace the whole flex pipe so I went with it.
