16V Exhaust: flex pipe?

[cscmc1 at eiu.edu (Chris M Cougill)]

Hi folks,

	I have a leak near the flex pipe on my '88 16V.  I just got this
car and am tidying it up, and it runs great except for the noise of the
exhaust.  The Bentley manual is disappointingly vague on the exhaust, so
I hope someone here might have been through this already.  
	I can feel exhaust air around the flex pipe (not up higher where
the exhaust gasket sits secures between 2 flanges with 6 bolts).  Is the
flex pipe easy to replace?  Is it reasonable to assume it's gone bad if I
feel exhaust air around it?  Any recommendations on sources for this part?

	Thanks!

	Chris
