Default Cracked turbo manifold

Well, it finally happened. After 3 years, I developed a crack in my manifold. Checked earlier today and it totally split right before the flange connecting to the turbo. So my turbo is basically loose and my car sounds like it's running open header. Can this be welded back together? How much should it cost with labor? I tie wrapped the wastegate so it doesn't move around that much... =T

it could probably be welded no problem if it was NOT a cast manifold. Even a cast one could be welded if the welder/shop was accomplished enough...
