The entire Y-pipe, and catalytic converter mating flanges are toast.
Looking for aftermarket supplier of the following,
1.) Y-pipe with correct mating flanges that will work with OEM gaskets and;
2.) Catalytic converter "test pipes"; or alternatively
3.) Supplier of correct mating flanges for exhaust manifold (if not replacing catalytic converter ) and flange set between exhaust manifold for producing fabricated y pipe assembly
Find a good exhaust shop and take the old parts there for a pattern, my brother had good luck doing that with one of his cars. I would not take the whole car unless you don't care about all the banging around on the underside they would do trying to fit it.

Are the 95-00 models the same as earlier models? I have a Y-pipe I removed due my factory one hitting some road debris at some point in its life. Luckily i found a salvage guy that didn't use the jaws of life on his and was able to use that in my car.
Do you need one? I have a factory OEM Lexus one available, but it has a gash in one of the tubes, right before the merging to the 1 pipe. The cat is intact and still good and flanges are rust free since mine is an AZ car, it came right off with hand tools. PM me if you're interested.
