Could you discuss exactly where your exhaust system was leaking? Did you remove the muffler and stack? What is involved in removing the muffler and stack?

On our trip south the end of October, I could smell exhaust fumes in the bedroom after long hard pulls. A quick look did not find any obvious leaks. I am loath to remove the entire exhaust system to look for leaks without knowing what I am looking for.

If you will look at the center photo on the thumbnails I attached earlier in this thread you will see the leak that was on top of the turbo u tube at the clamp which holds the tube in place. Other areas that fail are the welds BB used to hold the ball and socket assembly along the way up to the muffler.
If you are smelling exhaust, you have a leak.
