Exhaust leak on manifold
I don't know if this is the right section but I have a pretty big exhaust leak from my manifold. I know for a fact its only the one manifold and its every inlet to the manifold
I know the old gaskets didn't come off all the way because the were corroded and baked on to the point that even using a heavy file on the faces to get the most of the old gaskets off then a mill file to smooth it out.
Even then they still didn't come off all the way. It still leaks but is a lot better than previously. Is there any tricks to temporarily seal up inlets so that I can actually run the engine until I completely redo my exhaust this winter next summer?

As a hobby I keep ten beehives. My queen bees are now getting older and slowing down, so I ordered ten more queens from an apiarist. They arrived, but there were eleven arrived in their containers....
