I'm not sure what the factory did but I learned the exhaust sealer trick from 
an exhaust system specialist (muffler man) and have used it and it works a 
treat when properly applied.  You might try applying some to the exposed parts 
of the joint trying to work it into the gaps but since this stuff cures to a 
brittle, refractory type substance I don't think it will stand up to the 
vibration for very long.

Good luck

Dave
