Power engineering used to do a great fitting exhaust. which was all tig welded!!!
also woodford done one based on a mongoose system which is flange fitment and sits really tight to the under side but nla due to issues with collins. shame as it had the mongoose performance but fitted better.

so your only choice is a mongoose 3" system or there stainless std uprated version
