FL crossover pipe leak?

Just noticed that the mounting bracket for the crossover has broken loose at the mounting point.

Seems like the mounts were attached to the crossover pipe, something like a U bended piece. Anyway, now I'm worried that we might have a leak at this junction.

Any experience with this type of break?

Thanks for any help

I have seen many that are broken. None that leaked due to the break.

Yep, pretty much all stock Y-pipes break there. It doesn't go through to the inside to leak.

Time to get a '96+ Y-pipe .
