Default exhaust leak

on a 2002 accent I have an exhaust leak at the flex area of the manifold pipe-any ideas how to fix this-will muffler/tailpipe wrap work if I wrap it around numerous times?-the pipe itself is about 1.5 years old so I sure don't need to replace this. Any help would be very much appreciated.

You have a hole in the pipe? how big? I usually use epoxy (putty stick) - it seals the hole for a few months

Replace the pipe as dangerous gasses can enter the cab and have desaterous effects. This will be the legal way.
Regards.
