Engine Exhaust Pipe - Does this need an exhaust flange gasket?

[Scottyp1134]

I have an 86 CJ7 with the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l , stock exhaust manifold. There was a leak between the manifold and the exhaust pipe. There was no gasket there. After some research it seems some need it some don't.

Does this one need it or does it just need to be tightened to the manifold?

I'm looking at something like this: OMIX 17450.02 Exhaust Flange Gasket

Just tightens to the manifold
