Before squeezing them together I put a new gasket in and lathered a bunch of high temp gasket sealer in for good measure. It's now been a year and my exhaust is still quiet. Definitely a short term fix though.
By split flange, this is what I mean:

That is a nifty bit of kit, not something I have seen in the UK. Is the price really $114 each as with two flanges needed it would be $228 + postage. If that price is correct it would be cheaper to remove the exhaust and get a local chappie to weld on new flanges.
