Default Trying to Find Cat back pipe

Hope someone can help. I am trying to find were to purchase the bent pipe that is welded to my cat and connects to my muffler. It has rusted just aft of the hanger bar. I have only been able to locate entire kits. I believe its the top left pipe in this photo. Thanks.

that left pipe should be bolted to your cat if it looks like that pipe
If its welded to the cat, somebody needs

Magnaflow exhaust is made by Walker Tenneco and should be available from your local Napa Auto Parts
The stainless unit in your picture may only be available in the complete kit but the likely have it as non stainless

The problem with replacing just one component of the exhaust is sometimes the pipe bend or diameter is not the same

Yea PO welded in a universal. On the oem the pipe and cat are one unit that bolts to the muffler. Maybe i'll take a ride over to Napa with that part number and see if they can thumb through a catalog.

If you get an assembly, pay close attention to the flange bolt pattern. Went through trying to find a tailpipe/muffler assembly for my 04 4 door Blazer a little while back and noticed some had 3 bolt hole flanges and some had 2 bolt hole flanges. Not sure what makes the difference, my 04 has a 2 bolt hole, found a 2000 Blazer with a 3 bolt, and then a 99 Bravada with a 2 bolt which is what I ended up getting my tailpipe/muffler assembly off of.

Thanks guys. I think its a trip to the muffler shop to see if they can repair. I think since that pipe is on the original cat all the cat back kits will start from that flange so the chance of finding the intermediary as a stand along will be slim.
If my Central American friends cant fix off to bone yard.
