It is a grey compound that is in a tube. I cleaned the pipe with brake cleaner and wiped it off to remove any dirt. Then I smeared it into the small opening and then wrapped it with a fiberglass mat. Then I applied it 3 times as mentioned. Next I used some hose clamps and put them over the opening (opening was may 1/2" long by 1/8" wide). I figured the hose clamps would keep everything on tight. One idea I had was to cut up a soda or beer can and put that over the pipe & mat and then put the hose clamp on to hold and protect it all. I drive 220+ miles a day and it is holding for well over a week w/o any problems. I could not justify buying a new intermediate pipe.
I hope this helps!
Erik
