exhaust pipes seldom rust out. Are you sure it's the HE or just the gaskets and muf.

BTW I have a nice stock muf for $100.

looks like the euro pre muf not HEs. Take a shot of the other end of the the busted part. Could just get by with a "test pipe."

I think he meant take a photo of the side of the break that's still attached to the engines/heat exchangers...

HEs (heat exchangers) look OK. Muf looks iffy but it really looks like you need a "test pipe" not the whole exhaust system.

You should also check the condition of engine/tranny mounts. As others have said, a "cat test pipe" for an SC or Carrera will fit in place of the broken euro pre-muffler.

I just went on ebay and they have one test pipe for sell,also after the test pipe what are the names of the parts I will need to complete the exhaust. I remove the exhaust because a thick white smoke was coming out and I think ,since the car was not run for a few years,it is stuffed with god knows what in it ,and without muffler the car does not smoke anymore

Can't tell from the limited pics but at least the gaskets on either end and the test pipe. Download a manual and the PET from the link on my signature and take a look at the diagrams.
