exhaust leak

[cathie waring <cathiew@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi, am in the process of replacing the front half of a twin exhaust. 
previously had very rusty extractors that didnt fit & forced engine up on 
funny angle. previous owner boddgeid it up to sell. putting original type 
manifold back on & building new pipes backwards till hit good pipe 
again.anyhow finished r/h side & started car to check for leaks. engine ran 
smooth but started to backfire. does this mean i have a leak on the exhaust? 
any way to determine where axactly the leak is? my welds all look good to 
the eye so should i wrap a rag round each join to determine if it is at 
fault? [when pipes are cold] do i need to reset the timing? thanks, richard
