My exhaust manifold got damaged during shipping. The flange has a gash like dent in it. It does not go all the way across to the inside of the port but it is close. As you can see the exhuast manifold is ported and the coverage of the flange is greatly reduced. Should I be worried about an exhuast leak, or do you guys think I will be ok?

Thanks

 

You shouldnt have an issue with that.. its got plenty to seal there..
