Why don´t you have studs?

How are you going to fit the exhaust without them?

Try to stick the gaskets with a little drop of grease

Bit late now for Jim but for anyone else looking into this, there's a good YouTube video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6TL52R81V0, in which Robert uses a length of detal floss (presumably 'cos it's stronger than sewing cotton) wrapped around the studs to hold the gaskets in place.
