its something light, 28 lb-ft comes to mind, but I'll check when I get home. Most of those bolts you won't be able to get a torque wrench on anyways, so tighten them up, but not too tight because you'll snap em, then drive around and check them, retighten if necessary.

Also, to add to this, exhaust leaks are easy to spot, because they'll sound like deep puffs of air leaking through. I had an exhaust manifold leak on my Landcruiser, and all it took was some re-tightening on the surrounding bolts to close the gap.

Sometimes carbon takes a while to buildup, though. Especially on a fresh gasket replacement. And, carbon build ups are difficult to spot on warn gaskets already covered in carbon.
