Header Leak... Replace Gasket?

[elks]

So my last coyote hunting trip I got a pretty bad header leak just before I came home. I have had some issue with the gasket leaking at the collector so I thought it was just that. Well tonight I decide to look. I fine the header was loose from head. All bolts were loose. I ran only about 40 miles to the house with the leak...

So if I am lucky will I be able to tighten it all up and run it or is the gasket likely shot?

start by tightening them. I used orange rtv instead of gaskets and have never had a problem. Just a light skim around each port.
