So noticed a significant amount of noise from below the car taht sounded like an exhaust leak. Lifted the car, and did an oil change and decided to pinpoint the exhaust leak as well. Like many others experienced, leaking at the mainfold-head flanges....well, i had the upgraded forester gaskets but those did not seem to hold, as there were clear visual build up/leaks, and also a very audible leak. Upon further inspection i saw that the header itself had broke a weld. So unfortunately, had to pull this all apart to get that part off.
I know I am late, but I couldn't resist, and I can't believe I haven't seen anyone use this meme yet for the AVO manifold issues:
