Car Lifting & Exhaust Leak

Hello again, everyone!

I’m sorry to ask questions which have already been answered, but I have a bit to add on to my question. Don’t know how clear the pictures are to you, but I live on a slight incline I have two wheel chocks, which I assume I could place on the two front tires to prevent any roll. The incline is notable enough at places, but just to test out the ground I placed my car in neutral without the e brake and it didn’t move. I assume I should be fine.

Also, while on this topic. I’m only going to be taking one wheel off, should I lift the car by its rear point or side? I heard the sides tend to bend overtime as they are more of an emergency support. But I have no idea of how I would lower the car on one axle stand from the rear.

Second Question…

I will be installing a couple of parts for the Yaris over the next month, but first I have to fix my exhaust leak. I got an aftermarket Megan and it has a small leak where it connects to the flange (I believe that’s the name). I got a gasket about 2 months ago (NAPA) and it was made in India, I believe I just asked for the stock gasket and I assume this might cause a leak as well. However, a friend told me I can put two gaskets in there. Don’t know if that was a joke, or if I should give it a try.

This will be my first car lift I do by myself and I’m just trying to no screw anything, as I’m pretty well known for that.
