Anyone been thrown a CEL with Berk HFC's?

i got a cel with my HFC's after 60 miles on them and i got the same code...im pretty sure its an exhaust leak due to the way i installed them...or maybe that i didnt use O2 safe permatex (silicone gasket maker)

If it is an exhaust leak that would be awesome, I hadn't gotten the gaskets so my mechanic made custom ones using a material which he said might burn away (on the outer layers - the middle was a metal) I think mine is leaking as I hear a slight ticking etc coming from the cats. Hopefully this is causing the CEL.
