I would go to the local jy and cut that piece off and get a coupling that will fit over both ends,and clamp it in place,you will need a couple of hangers,the other way is to try and put together some pipe from the local autoparts.

just go to a hardware store, get some metal strapping. Drill a couple holes in that old hanger, run the strapping through it, and around the exhaust pipe, and call it good.

I would get the proper tailpipe. Judging by all the soot on the rear diff your blowing the hot exhaust right onto it. I wonder how that gear oil is holding up under all that heat.
