An exhaust leak will make you run lean and overheat as well as give the piston a hard time.
What is the compression reading after 5 kicks.
You said that you know that the jetting is wrong, do not ride it again until you have fixed the jetting and confirmed by a plug chop.
You have been advised more than once not to ride until you have addressed the jetting problems, keep riding and very soon the engine will die and you will be responsible for its demise.
While you have the pipe off to fix the leak, have a look up the exhaust port for signs of piston damage.
