Turbo exhaust pipe broke off

91 CTD W250 5 speed

The Exhaust side of the turbo pipe is broke clean off. I examined it and it appears it should have a small collar on the end of the pipe which holds the pipe in place with the clamp. Without the collar on the pipe I don't see it staying in the turbo with the clamp pressure alone holding this big pipe in place without sliding out. I think the collar prevented this from happening and when it broke off inside the clamp the pipe fell off. What are my options? I have been wanting to do stacks and the truck is used for plowing and is currently on the lift. It is also lifted with big tires which would allow for an easier install. But right now I can't even drive it. Are there aftermarket solutions or do I have to buy a dealer exhaust?
Thanks Tim
