Unhappy Exhaust leak....... did search..

wassup people.
i just installed my greddy ti exhaust for my FD (while its in the shop for paint job/reassemble everything right now)

but then yea.. i let my car idle for while and i see 2 or 3 drops of water!!!! i was like FAWK!!!!!!~~~ i was really trippin out....because i had exhaust leak w/ my stock exhaust...(i thought it was gasket)
now....i think its the cat(where it connects to the exhaust) is bent, because when i saw my old gasket i saw a lil bit of black mark(from smoke) upper part of the gasket. other parts of gasket was just fine.
i know main cat(whole assembly) cost $$$BANK$$$ cant afford that right now.
i mean leak is not too bad, but i feel so incomplete lol (damn i sound hella gay)
is there anything i can use to make it stop leaking?? like crazy sealer?? lol any sealer i can put around my flange( sealers that can take the crazy heat?)

or should i just buy a new cat?
well imma post on "for sale" section and see if anyone wants to sell theirs... im pretty sure some performance shop got the spare collects a dust from their customer...
so please give me a advise what i can do or what are my choices..
please help!
thanks for reading!!!

use two gaskets, and that 'copper' hi-temp gasketmaker. Should fix stuff.
