to my knowledge these cracks can be welded by and experienced shop, depending on who you are i would take the manifold around and ask for a example of their welding ability, just my two cents

it must be pre-heated prior to welding, and be welded with nickel filler.

Would it be cheaper to just buy another HF manifold?
