You should be able to feel the escaping gas with your hand. I had a
similar problem with a new tail pipe. It was puffing exhast gas at the
flange where the pipe met the converter. I ran the car up on ramps and
took a look to make sure before taking it back to the service station.
They had used the wrong part and replaced it.
