Exhaust leaks are sometimes easier to identify if you have someone a
wadded-up rag over the tailpipe while someone else listens for the leak.
You can sometimes see where the leak is by looking for sooty deposits which
sometimes form near the leaks.
Check the flex joint under the manifold, the manifold gasket, and the EGR
valve and tube from the EGR valve to the throttle body.
