Temporary exhaust patch

Anyone have any experience with exhaust patch material? I noticed a fairly large hole in mine (Cummins diesel) but am in the road with a very busy trip and would like a quick fix until I can get back home....

    Exactly where is the hole?

    Exhaust manifold, down pipe, muffler or tail pipe?

    About 1 foot from the exhaust end of the tail pipe.

  • Can you just wrap it with a piece of metal flashing and secure it with a couple of big hose clamps?
    You could get everything from Home Depot.
