Exhaust manifold gasket

I have a '77 K10 that I'm slowly trying to fix up. It has a 350 with the stock cast iron manifolds. The exhaust system looks original as well. It has a bad exhaust leak at the driver's side manifold collector where it bolts to the exhaust pipe. I got some new donut gaskets. Passenger side fit correctly, but the driver's side didn't have a gasket on it. Instead, it has what almost looks like a flare fitting with a nipple cast onto the manifold and the flare on the exhaust pipe. Does anyone know if this junction has a gasket, or is it supposed to be metal to metal? If so, how the heck do I seal it up? Thanks for the help.
