2.375 is the exact answer to your question. The pipe is threaded into the manifold and will probably be difficult to remove. It will likely not come out with a pipe wrench. Cutting them off flush with a sawsall, after poking a few shop rags down the pipe to prevent any rust or saw filings from getting into the cylinders will be a start. Then with that sawsall, cut notches into the inside of the remaining pipe (but not into the manifold (will take some looking carefully to be sure)) in 2 places spaced about 1/4 inch apart. Use a exhaust pipe chisel to peel the chunk between the cuts into the center, hammer such that the chisel curls it shearing the two cuts leaving a cleaned chunk of thread. Now the remainder is easy to force into the center and remove with the muffler chisel. Next find a rental store to loan you a 2" NPT threading Tap. (do not think of purchasing one unless you are well funded!!!) A friend in plumbing may have access to one! Use it to chase the threads and get old rust out so the new shiny pipe from Wardner etal. will be in a good home. Put silver moly anti sieze on the threads. Use a magnet to remove most of the trash in the hole, then remove the rags being careful to not loose material out of them (starting the engine to blow them out might be entertaining, and provide certainty that no particles were sucked in!)
