Default which size exhaust gasket?

I just recently installed the ultimate racing 3" exhaust. I perviously had the invidia 70mm test pipe. There seems to be a very small leak from the exhaust to the test pipe. I want to get a gasket, does it matter if it's a 70mm gasket or a 3" gasket? Eventually I will get the 3" test pipe but for now the 70mm will have to do. I've spent way to much money this week already on the S. I'm guessing it really doesn't matter, but heck why not ask.

It's a weird gasket. I went to every autoparts and muffler shop.
The holes aren't evenly spaced.
Some people have used exhaust sealant. I bought this.
It's what you need.

^ thanks, what size is it? 70mm?

Would a smaller gasket affect the flow that much?

^ are the 3" exhaust gaskets universal? Like S2KNFR said the wholes are not evenly spaced out.

70mm = 2.7559 inches. It'd be easier to use the exhaust sealant.

I was thinking of the exhaust sealant as well. Would it just be a gasket sealant?
