An added comment. According to some of the blokes standing around on
the jetty you are not supposed to use stainless to make exhaust parts.
NOT NEVER!

If they know so much, why are they standing around on the jetty?

I've seen plenty of stainless exhaust componenents put in the million dollar
plus boats I design. Never heard of a problem. The "make exhaust parts"
part might be relevant because the parts I'm familiar with were bolted
together from pieces fabricated by people who make exhaust their business.

I just threw that one in for free. Most marinas have a sizable number
of "experts" who give free advise on any subject from propellers to
masthead lights, most of which is outdated, illogical or just plain
wrong.
