exhaust sealer

Anyone have any idea what can be used to seal an exhaust leak? I've got a 3" DP with a flange that bolts to my 60-1 turbo's flange. These are standard 3 bolt style. The problem is, I can't seem to get them to seal in the area between the bolts. I can feel exhaust coming out in those areas when I check immediately after startup.

I've used copper gasket, aluminium gasket, and GASP!! paper. None worked to any degree. Is there something I can apply that will hold up to the heat generated by the turbo?

I'm at a loss here. . .

TIA
