460 Exhaust question

I have a 86 F-250 4x4 with a 460 engine. How are the exhaust pipes sealed to the manifold? Is it a gasket like on a header or is it a donut?

Not sure, it may not have a gasket at all. I had an 76 Chrysler Cordoba with a 360 and when I swapped the motor into something else, it didn't have an exhaust gasket. Was told that it was like that from the factory and was normal for those year cars. Most likely its going to have a gasket though.

Yeah, that's the same setup as mine. You just tighten up the manifold to the pipe and it seals itself with no help needed.
