Loose Exhaust Sleeve

Do you think i could weld it and sand it smooth just to make sure it holds???

No, you wont be able to weld it in place. I'm with Max777 on the idea that once the exhaust manifold is bolted on and tight, the manifold and gasket seated on the sleeve should be adequate enough to hold it snugly. Someone correct me if I'm wrong in thinking this but I think the sleeve does sit flush against the manifold.
