Default Up pipe problem.

Hello fellas,
My 51 plate bugeye has just failed its mot due to a exhaust leak at the manifold (or so the garage said thats where it was coming from), Now i have just changed all the gaskets from the manifold, started the car and found out the leak is coming down the heat shield/cover for the up pipe and escaping around the manifold area Now the question is.. Is it likely to be the gasket at the top of the up pipe or could the up pipe itself have failed?
A bit of advice will be very much appreciated.!!

Cheers, Deano.
