The only "patch kits" I am familiar with are for the heat exchangers are nothing more than pipe extensions. (i.e. for external exhaust leaks at the muffler flange) If you get the fumes / smell inside, the pipe is most likely rotting back in the exchanger, remedied by replacing it. And, be cautious what you are buying... Danish / German stuff only, not the repop empi taiwan / china junk.
