Default Hooker headers

I recently installed a new engine in my 01 Mustang GT and now one of the header pipes is rubbing aganist the steering shaft. Anyone know of an easy fix? Also, I have an exhaust leak right after my x-pipe. A friend told me I should have a gasket, but there wasn't one when I bought it(its a magnaflow exhaust). I'm losing my faith in Ford.:censored:

leaks after the x-pipe doesn't matter except for noise. there's a gasket on the passenger side header-xpipe connection but not at the x-pipe to cat back connection. Those are ball and socket flanges and they don't require gaskets.
