        Interesting, I had the same problem when I installed my new exhaust 
        system on my 75 B.  As I recall the metal side of the gasket goes 
toward 
        the down pipe.  The down pipe has a "flat" flange for it to rest on.  
        The taper goes toward the manifold.

Does anyone know which way the two sealing rings fit between the exhaust 
manifold and downpipe on a '67 MGB? Should the metal side point 
toward the exhaust manifold, or away from it? There is a photo 
(#46.2) in my Haynes manual on page 92, but I can't tell for  sure 
which way they fit.
        
Thanks,
