The front weld seam connecting the exaust pipe to the rear muffler has rusted out. Both muffler and pipe seem to be in good condition and they are stamped as Mercedes parts.

Can the seam be rewelded... is a special alloy rod needed for a repair weld?

If not can someone recommend a replacement brand? Fastlane lists: Eberspaecher, Ansa and Bosal as replacement manufacturers. Any suggestions as to one that will not rust out?

Thanks.
