You'll know if you can hear or feel an exhaust leak.

I would go back and just unbolt and rebolt it back up, taking extra care that it's aligned right before you do the rebolting

Do have the donut gasket in there Yarisaur? There should be a round polymer gasket that fits in the joint and gets sandwiched between the flanges under spring tension when the bolts are tight.
