I pulled off the exhaust header pipe off my 85 300D today. It was
broken on the top part of the flex. There was more damage.
The bracket that holds the header pipe cast iron flange was broken which
broke the small 2 inch long, 3.25 diameter flex on the output of the
turbo. The spider bracket that holds the air cleaner broke also.
I can weld the air cleaner bracket and the bracket that holds the cast
iron support for the header pipe. I have not been able to find the
turbo outlet flex pipe. Is there a name for it that I'm not searching
correctly? Does anyone know where to find one?
I'll have to check the engine mounts to make sure that didn't cause
this, but I really need a car on the road now.
The turbo outlet flex pipe and the bracket for the cast iron is similar
to this:
