4.2 Exhaust Leak

4.2 Exhaust Leak
I recently purchased a used F150 SB, 4.2/5spd and 10k miles. The exhaust has a leak where the driver's side exhaust pipe makes a 90 degree turn to connect to the cross pipe that connects to the passenger side exhaust (under the cab). There is a ring type clamp where the driver's side pipe and cross pipe connect that is tack welded in place. Should this ring have been welded all the way around or do I have a defective exhaust pipe. The leak is audible, as well as having condensate dripping out when the engine is cold. There is also a lot of black soot around the leak. Any info would be appreciated.
