well that ain't the mesh that is the inner flex,
But it has to be

A major leak of exhaust gases from any part of the system.

for it to fail; a slight leak is acceptable
putting the / some flex on it will not stop it blowing btw

there is no inner flex just an exposed spigot joint i can pull it apart by hand now,

those flexi links are usually a piece of exhaust flex with stainless mesh around them like this to strengthen the join
