Could a leak in the exhaust manifold and leaks all the way through an exhaust system make a car run rough and misfire? the manifold is a stock one that is in two halves.

An exhaust leak will distort the reading being taken by the oxygen sensor. The fuel mixture will appear leaner than it actually is, the ECU will attempt to compensate by increasing fuel delivery.
