The exhaust was bought brand new from Invidia and the gaskets were sent by them as well. The system is loud in the first place so a difference in that would not be noticed.
Your brand new exhaust came with a damaged flange? I would be sending that pic to Invidia and getting a new exhaust.

Barring that, some Red RTV sealant on the damaged flange with new gaskets should take care of the leak
