I have looking at exhaust systems to help a friend and just saw the ones available at the Filling Station. It appears that the pipe from the manifold is perforated at the end and slides into the muffler and the tail pipe goes on the muffler. Am I seeing that right? There also appears to be a bolt on the end of the perforation that may attach to the muffler. I've never seen this before.

That is how the original system was designed.

Yep, that is correct and that is how the original exhaust system was designed as Steve mentioned above. Check out your 1929-32 Chevrolet parts book for an illustration of the exhaust pipe and the muffler. Other 1932 literature shows the design of the exhaust system as well.
