Z22se Exhaust Manifold

I think I may need a new exhaust manifold, so I'm just looking to see if anybody has one for sale?

Currently my exhaust is blowing fairly badly, from the manifold area and is leaking fumes into the engine bay, I hear it's a common fault for the manifold to crack so I figure this is probably the issue.

Located Ripley, Derbyshire if that helps

Remove the lower and upper heat shields and have a look. If it is cracked, it's usually in the middle, just above where it bolts to the downpipe.
There is a break in the flange that bolts to the head between outlets 2 & 3, this is normal. 🙂

Shame its an astra as i should have a really clean manicat available soon(vectra c). But that makes all the rest of your exhaust all wrong.
