Hey guys after recently taking off my header pipes and putting them back on I noticed that it is leaking from the header. I took my header pipes off and was going to replace the copper gaskets that fit in and crush down, but I do not know how to get the original one out. Does anyone have any way or any ideas on how to do this? It is where the pipe meets the engine. Whatever you have would be appreciated. Thanks

Sharpish screwdriver and a hammer around the edges usually works for me.

Will they just pop out? Or are stubborn on coming out. I don't want to damage anything on it.

They'll just contort and bend..then pry the leftover out,,just take it easy and you won't damage anything.
