Welcome aboard. The American parts are carried by the big American Pontiac houses, Ames and Performance Years, You can probably find a new one on ebay as well. I wouldn't waste any energy on welding a cracked manifold. I had a pair that would have worked but sold them at Route 66 cruise in August.

the 1977 400 CID Firebird exhaust manifolds are the same as the GP. If you want new ones, you can get repro ones from RARE (Ram Air Restorations), or they're resold through most major US resto companies like Ames and Performance Years.
