Exhaust leak in 4.2

New around this site but have been wandering around for awhile and looks like a nice forum. That being said.

I have an exhaust leak right after the passenger side exhaust manifold from a rusted broken bolt on the flange. Wondering if any of you have had this issue and have a good fix for it. I've come across a clamp-a-stud which looks like it might work. Anyone use it? Thanks for any help with this.

Take a nut put it on the stud weld it to the stud on the inside of the nut. then unscrew the nut that you have welded to the stud.
