Default Foam padding for exhaust??

I have some kind of rubber/foam padding under my car to keep the exhaust from hitting the floor pan. Well I need a little bit more and can't find anything that I need. I already searched 3M and asked but they said that they dont have anything like that.

It sticks to the bottom of the car and seems to have a rubber padding exterior facing the exhaust.

Does anyone know where I can get something like that? My y pipe hits the floor pan when idleing with the cam I have.

I'm not sure who makes it but there's a closed cell foam
we use for test fixtures that's probably what you want.
It's good for at least 150C and probably more.

Here's one page that might help you, have not looked
at price or quantity myself.

Though a piece of heater hose might do as well. That
and a hose clamp is what I use. You just need to mellow it out
"enough", right?

It's what I did. A whole lot easier than motor mounts
