That link for the exhaust gasket isn't close and won't fit..
As for other Yamaha FZ6 exhaust gaskets being interchangeable, go to Partzilla and look up part #'s to see if their the same.
You can take a file lightly to the inside of the pipe that had the car exhaust clamp on it. It'll show real quick if that pipes distorted.
if it is, again, a muffler shop can easily expand that pipe to normal.
I still have my CAT, so I worked up from there. I seriously doubt that pipe is oval. The car clamp could have very easily distorted it.
As you've seen, the stock gasket fits tight in the pipe or its going to leak.
You may have to wait till Monday but call Scorpion and see if the joints in question take a Scorpion gasket or just the Yamaha one
(most likely the Yamaha one, one less thing to manufacture/sell)
Also, should ANY pipe ends be oval...If not, again, the muffler shop can make them round again..
