I did a quick auto trace. If I had all of the actual dimension this would be easy to draw up from scratch. Or clean this one up an scale to correct size, smooth out flange perimeter, and redraw holes so they are round and accurately placed.

It is really difficult to get accurate measurements from a photograph like that.

Try this one...

These measurements do not pan out on the software.

Well, if you have software to draw vector files, and you have or can GET a new gasket for the manifold, that is your BEST option for coming up with the pattern to create a new flange. Using a photo is only a best guess scenario. Napkin sketches are rarely accurate.
