A blown manifold exhaust gasket, is simple to explain. The Exhaust manifold ,are bolted to your heads. Which the exhaust pipes are connected to.

You're going to have to drop both front and rear manifold connections. Should be 3 studs in the front manifold & 3 in the rear. Replace both o ring gaskets while you're in there.

If you have accessto a cutting torch heat up the manifold to remove the studs or heat up the nuts as not to break the studs.
