My head is spinning...What to do about exhaust manifold leak?

Not sure if this helps for the area concerned...but pretty cool and the guy is pretty entertaining.

OP Have you checked prices in Portland at ToyDoctor or Integrity, both great Toyota specialist.

Or maybe a 4x4 shop in Bend. There was a upgraded header design on the v8's at some-point so an OEM header will be different then what you have on the 4runner now.

Best of luck.
