Hi guys, another problem I noticed. There are two bars on opposite sides of the aft-part of the engine that are not connected. Looks like they could've been connected to bottom of exhaust manifold? I attached some pictures. Any help and if I should be concerned is appreciated.

You are missing the hose clamps that go around the muffler.  They wrap around and hold the muffler to those two bars which push up against the two pieces of rubber that are stuck on the muffler.

BIG hose clamps.

Make sure the rubber padding under the muffler is properly in place so the muffler doesn’t get a hole worn in it from vibrating.

Gotcha guys, as always thanks for the help. So I need a hose clamp big enough to go around the whole muffler, the little rubber part, and the bar? And it should be tight correct? Could anybody send a link for the hose clamp because I'm having trouble imagining what would go there.

I don't have a link but you can see them in this picture.  Just get some that are large enough to go around the entire muffler.  They just hook around the tabs on the end of the bar closest to the muffler.

Thanks for the pic! Of course Lowe's only had 6" hose clamps. I tried to buy two and combined them together, but now it's too big and won't get tight enough to clamp down lol. Guess I gotta go back to Lowe's and find a new combo of hose clamps.

NAPA might be an option.
