Exhaust manifold issue, any ideas on what could have caused this? Is a weld and machine a lasting repair? There is just a small area of material connecting the top and bottom portions that I'm estimating to be .125 deep. The exhaust valve to the right was the one with the worst seat issues. You can see the gasket is no longer sealing on the top of the ports where the manifold portions are no longer in line and eaten away.
