The manifold will be designed to mate with the standard pattern exhaust system.  Any exhaust manufacturer using a standard pattern, ie Piper, Blueflame (Mongoose), Magnex, Scorpion, etc will fit nicely. 
 
Don't forget Corsa owners are a strange bunch - they all like to fit weird and wonderful tailpipes to their exhausts... TVR tailpipe anyone?   
   
 
your really worring me Joff.  I fear you are moving camp to that of CHUMP

8v Corsa Exhaust 
  
 
16v Corsa Exhaust 
  
 
they are the same after the cat.... 
 
just get them made to fit a x14/x16/c16 engine then it would only be a case of spending 80 for a cat if your transplanting into an 8v.....

Agreed.  Likely to be 16v, with optional decat/sports cat.

This is a 1.28v exhaust, the manifold is one of those cast steel items, it has a down pipe with a catalytic convertor after the cat there is a clamp that attatches the downpipe to the center section. I'm sure a 16v exhaust would fit the car, I don't think Vauxhall would weld mounting points onto the chassis in different places and have different shaped bends because it could cost them a lot more 
   
 
Somebodys put at least 1 of your tires on the wrong way mate. 
   
No way   Never noticed that....

Any idea where the join is between the 1.0 12v exhaust system and the manifold/downpipe? 
   
 
the 12v 's cat connects directly to the exhaust manifold
