Are you saying that the exhaust manifolds are new? How did you check for leaks. A "sucking" sound doesn't sound normal for a leak. I don't really have any ideas if theres to leaks, but I hope you get to the bottom of it.

did compression test all cylinders were 440-460 loosened the 4 injectors on driver side and the motor would stumble the ip has about 1100 miles on it but it sounds like a miss on the driver side exhaust but under the hood the engine is smooth the injector are not new could it be something with them
