Recently replaced a spark distributor for two cylinders. And also replaced leaked fuel pump.
But the fuel economy has dropped to half the original fuel economy.
The exhaust pipe is leaked just near the catalytic converter.
Can the exhaust pipe leakage be the reason of such poor fuel economy?

Not normally , scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge in US you can rent the gauge for that. See link.
