Default GF's car is going poop, need advice on exhaust repair

GF's car has an exhaust manifold leak. I was thinking if I can not find a good salvage one that I can get a DC header or something. It is a 1992 LX automatic. First off , does anyone have a reputable salvage yard that ships parts that they deal with? 2nd , when i look up headers i dont see auto/manual designations listed anywhere. Are they all the same?

Well the best price I can find is 150 for a used mani. Are there headers in the -250 price range that will work? I would rather have a new piece.

Would this one fit an auto lx ?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1

Do you think it would last over a year? I need to get a cat for it too as its shot and these are the two things that are killing her emissions.

One last question. The car needs a rear engine mount bad. The poor engine is thrashing all around and i suspect this is what caused the failure of exhaust components. The oem part is around 400 dollars and some mechanic told her that the one at autozone wouldnt fit and the mount was special and needed a valve and vacume hose. I have never seen an engine mount in my life that needed a hose. WTH is this guy smokin? Can i get the 100 dollar mount at the 'zone? I tried the internet search and cant find any online.
Thanks
