What kind of holes? If the pipe is rusting out, then the whole thing probably needs to be replaced.
If the holes are behind where the catalyst converter was, it should be no problem getting it repaired or replaced at any muffler shop.
Some independent shops might replace a midpipe if it's cash only, no paperwork.
