Default cant seal this exhaust leak

i have tried torqueing the dogbone clamp on these bassani true duals, i put red high temp adhesive and it turned to cruchy powder and that stuff has a limit of 650 degrees i emailed bassani no response yet its at the crossover connection is there any other stuff that anyone is using that will withstand the heat on the pipes

I would try it but i am a little concerned that that pipe gets upwards of 700-1,000 degrees that substance probally will not hold at that temp, it works great on mufflers but being so close to the engine probally fall apart, maybe i will try putting a muffler clamp on rather then the t bone clamp, that clamp seems pretty cheap especially since i spent over 400 for the pipe very disappointed with bassani
