exhaust manifold cracked.. what do i do?

98 DX got a CEL light the 02 is bad,,,, but the manifold is obviously cracked around the o2 can it be fixed? or would it be ok to just buy a Dorman type OE replacement around $150 or should i go for the cheap eBay header at $50 bucks?? didn't know if the quality on either was any good.. seems like the eBay header would require 02 extenders too unless the stock harness will reach.. it says its a "direct bolt on" lol id rather not go to the salvage and pull a stock one but i will...

any advice please?

thanks

A shop may be able to weld the crack depending how bad and it's location.

OE replacement would be a good option. I would go to a junk yard before getting an eBay one.
