Sounds like the exhaust just needs re-alignment. With the shifter noise just buy a square of sound deadener, lift up your shifter consule and boot, trim deadener to fit over shifter and put everything back. Makes it much quieter. If you need someone to check this out for you and are in the bay area shoot me a pm.

Wow, the exhaust is hitting your rear sway bar?...Are you sure it's not your upper control arms or the tires rubbing?....Sounds like the best thing to do is take it to an exhaust shop and have them cut and re-weld it so it fits and doesn't rub/contact anything...

Do you have an aftermarket shifter?....
