Did you have a misfires accumulating on only one cylinder with the exhaust leak? I would think that you would have misfire codes for all the cylinders upstream of that gasket in that scenario (e.g. 1-4 or 5-8 or both if both gaskets were faulty).

I only have a misfire on cylinder 7. The misfire follows the coil, which is the EXACT criteria spelled out in the BMW factory manual with regards to misfire diagnosis.
