Abstract

An exhaust manifold includes a housing formed of a thin-walled sheet metal part which is shaped in the form of a shell construction and has an upper housing shell and a lower housing shell to define an interior space. Received in the housing in an area proximate to a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine is a baffle plate which separates the interior space of the housing from a motor flange to secure the exhaust manifold to the cylinder head.
