Part of your problem is trying to do a "cob job" in the first place. If the muffler didn't fit, you should have returned it.

Did you clamp the muffler on? A standard clamp should be more than adequate to seal up the major leaks, and tiny ones will seal on their own with carbon and corrosion in a short time.

Don't do another "cob job" by chopping off the exhaust stack!!! First off, how will you get to the clamp under the hood? Second off, the body of the muffler will be so close to the hood that it'll burn the paint off.

Is your exhaust stack any good in the first place? It may be so rusted out that it's leaking, and no amount of clamping or chopping is going to help. All you can do is remove and replace with new black iron water pipe of the right size.
