on my 97 sport the left side heat shield fell of, after the notice of a pitting sound above 2 grand RPM I checked to find no manifold gasket. there seems to only be the two front bolts and the Y pipe that hold this to the engine. Can that stay or do I need to get a new heat shield to plug the dead holes in the block to support the manifold. ps Mopar this is a really cheesy assembly.
