Exhaust Update 2019060801

I got the new exhaust in my 2008 Chevy HHR LS pretty much mounted.  But I missed a ring that goes on the end of the header.  The header has 10 bolts and really don't want to have to dismount it if I don't have to.  But the ring doesn't mount into anything.  What it does is that it's used to compress the gasket.  The only thing holding it is the torque of the 3 bolts that mount the catalytic converter to the header in a triangle pattern.  So, I'm trying to figure out how I can hold the ring on while I reattach the catalytic converter pipe?

My friend at the auto parts store here in town is borrowing my 3-1/2 ton jack to work on my neighbor's car.
