MasterThere is muffler tape available at any auto parts store a company called Permatex make what they call muffler tape. Theer is also a putty you can put over cracks but they tend to be short term solutions.

With the exhaust blocked off momentarily the exhaust forces out where the leak is and is easy to find.
