Could a valve tapping sound be caused by an exhaust manifold leak in the same area on a 97 wragler 2.5 engine?

one way to check for leaks on your exhaust is to jack your car up get a strong blue LED torch and scan the exhaust starting from the engine mount right the way down the tell tale sign's of having an exhaust leak is , if you see a charcoal colored substance on your exhaust that means either a hole is there or one is developing another way is to think back are you putting a lot more fuel in the car than you normally did ? as when exhausts get holes in it lets AL-OT more carbon emissions out there for basically just drinks your fuel

What can cause squeaking noise from exhaust manifold after car has been running while?
squeeking from exhaust manifold is caused by a leak allowing exhaust gas to leak. it will only get worse as time goes on unless it is fixed
Could a ticking sound be caused by small exhaust manifold leak in a 97 Dodge Neon?
Yes.
How can you tell if a engine is blown on a 1985 Lincoln Mark 7 if you hear a loud tapping coming from the right side of the engine?
General engine health can be determined by testing compression, oil pressure and blowby. The noise you describe can be caused by several things. Check the "temerature riser", a valve that allows exhaust gasses to cross over the intake manifold to pre-heat a cold engine. Also check the EGR valve. If it's leaking it can sometimes make a sound that might be interpreted as tapping. It could also be a collapsed lifter. That often occurs if the oil hasn't been kept clean. There are a few engine cleaning products that help occasionally, but don't count on it. You might also want to check your exhaust manifold and gasket. If the gasket is blown, or if the manifold is cracked, it can also make that loud tapping sound.
Loud exhaust noise from front end of 2000 Prizm?
Loud exhaust noise from the front end is usually caused by one of several problems. The exhaust manifold gasket could be blown, the doughnut gasket could be bad, or there could be a crack in the exhaust itself.
05 fiat doblo with an annoying and worrying noise like a refs whistle when revving up or accelerating quickly you don't believe it is the turbo but something connected to it?
This noise is caused by the exhaust manifold gasket being perforated adjacent to the flange of the branch of number one cylinder, the noise is being created by high pressure/back pressure in the exhaust manifold escaping betyween the exhaust manifold and the cylindert head- Owen Diesel
What would cause burning smell from exhaust pipe?
The burning smell from the exhaust pipe may be caused from oil or transmission fluid leaking into the exhaust pipe. For example, if your turbo is failing on the car, then that can cause leakage from the manifold into the exhaust pipe. There may be other reasons, too, which other people will be better articulating.
Why is white smoke coming from the exhaust manifold?
White smoke from the exhaust pipe is a sign of coolant entering the combustion chamber. Commonly caused by a blown head gasket. STOP driving this vehicle until you have this repaired or you will destroy this engine.
Why is your 2001 DT466 diesel engine leaking excessive engine oil through exhaust manifold?
Excessive crank case blow by caused by worn piston rings
What does the speaker think might be the cause of the tapping?
The speaker suggests that the tapping sound might be caused by someone tapping on the window to try and scare them or get their attention.
What is the sputtering noise coming from the exhaust manifold on a 1994 Mitsubshi Eclipse 1.8?
If the sputter dissipates when the engine gets warm then a portion of the exhaust manifold is not tight against the engine block and is letting exhaust gas escape until the metal heats up and expands, if no then you might have a break in the exhaust gasket. Nothing that will harm the car or keep you from passing a smog test but annoying for sure. In my case the last bolt on the end of the manifold broke for some reason and caused the same sputter, I ened up removing the bolt and replacing it and the sputter went away. Good luck
Why does exhaust manifold in an aircraft fail?
most manifold problems are caused by gasket/seal failure rather than the manifold itself - the aircraft manifold is subject to higher tempertures and preasures than a car engine and that is often compounded by flying at high altitude a common reason for manifold failure is called "bootstrapping" which is a condition caused by low rpm at high altitude causing manifold preasure to drop so low the wastegate closes - it can easily be corrected by increasing rpm also the exhaust gas preasure is often used to help turn a turbocharger turbine and if the preasure is allowed to drop to low the trubocharger will no longer work efficiently and engine will lose power these are reasons why rpms/manifold preasure should not drop to low in an aircraft in cruise flight
Why is your peguet 406 making a loud tapping sound from the engine?
The loud tapping sound can be caused by a complete heating of the engine. Worn tappets can also cause the tapping sound.
