Red face Non-sequential question

To you guys that have gone Non-sequential what did you do to fill the hole where the flaps were in the exhaust manafold and the turbo. I tried to use a bolt and nut with some washers but im getting an exhaust leak.

I used nuts and bolts with washers with some red loctite with no issues (as according to the Rotary res website since I don't have access to welding tools). How have you verified that you have leaks at these points?

I used a Stethoscope to find out were it was coming from. and its coming from both the turbo and the manifold right were the holes are. It sucked to get it all back together to hear that.
