Yes an exhaust off a DF engine will fit on a DG. As Kev states, there is a difference between early (pre ~86) and late DG exhausts, but, if you remove a couple of exhaust mounting parts that may have been left on the DG engine (if it was the late type) then the DF system will fit fine. (I have the same on one of my 2 vans)

Re Exhaust studs, use PlusGas not WD40 and lots of heat from a gas blow lamp ;)
Got a new van, but it's a 165bhp T4 [shock horror] Accurate LPG Station map here
