You doing this all by hand tools or do you have an impact? This is not the job I would want to do without an impact. F that, pull the engine. Damn near impossible with hand tools with it still in the car.
If you just got the bolts on the side of the head by the exhaust ports you missed the bracket that holds the exhaust pipe immediately after the headers collector. As Emmi said, it bolts the midpipe to the bell housing.
