Hairline Crack in the Exhaust Manifold

Was advised last night that it's not a leaky exhaust gasket, but a cracked exhaust manifold. So, decided to have a look. Everyone said "you're looking for a hairline crack".

Well, not sure where the hair for this hairline crack came from, maybe it's a pasta type "hair", because it was big crack on the neck of the exhaust manifold. When you know what to look for - great clouds of exhaust can be seen coming from it.

Wandered down to the repair shop, we're on first name basis now, and got some metal liquid. Applied and this stuff needs 24 hours to cure.

If you can't see the crack - look directly into the centre of the photograph in the underexposed area, and there is a black line. Directly in the centre of the photograph - and you will see it.
