Excessive muffler noise

This is for my 1979 240 D, w123.

Exhaust noise louder than normal lately. So I look underneath, here is a shot at about the side mirror, passenger side.

If this is a probable cause of the noise, can someone show me what it should look like, or what they did for a similar fix? I'm thinking I just need to tighten the clamp, which is kinda loose, but maybe the pipe is ready to break due to the rust?

(I did search, and someone had posted "cut a tin can lengthwise and use 2 clamps. " That is almost what I need here, isn't it?)
