Exhaust manifold question

Got another one for you guys, as most of you know I have a crack in my exhaust manifold. After further inspection, I also noticed that a bolt has sheared off where the manifold connects to the downpipe. My question is: is there any kind of gasket between the manifold and downpipe or can I just replace the sheared off bolt? If there is a gasket or something, I want to replace what should be there of possible. Anything to make the cab not smell like I left the jeep running in the garage. Thanks.

Yes there is. Well there is supposed to be. It looks like a bracelet. Had the same problem with mine after I figured out the original owner ran the down pipe against the engine mount... Fun stuff. I don't know how much room you have to pay with. But I had to take the manifold off to properly place that gasket
