Are you sure its not the front pipe to manifold joint?

Should be a bit easier on a 3.2

Yep

Hence check the other gasket first as its so much less likely to cause an issue

I noted that Auto addict had a similar issue on the drivers side

No its certainly the zorst manifold,you can see the smoke emitting from it,and besides,the front pipe gasket has already been done. :)
