Find a welder that will work on cast iron, shouldn't be all that expensive.

Default well i actually welded it myself today :P

i practiced on a scrap cast iron honda accord manifold and then i grew the *****, cleaned the metal with a wirewheel, heated up with oxy-acetalyne (for slow cool-down), and welded with a wirefed MIG with high gas... turned out pretty good but after grinding doesnt look half bad. thanks - moose

Good for you! Glad that worked out as the odds of finding an uncracked mani are pretty slim.
