Go to a welding supply house and ask for their alloy cast brazing rod. It is square and you weld with a acetylene torch. You may have to use a flux that is used with this rod if the manifold is real rusty.You apply it just like brazing you have to have your work flat. When you finish it looks just like the casting.I have done a lot of restoration manifolds cars ,antique tractors. I also have a acetylene cast iron spray torch that uses a powder it is very handy but more expensive to operate.The nice part is the weld is very machineable no hard spots.If it is a rookie welding supply house and they laugh at you go someplace else to a business that has been around for 20 or 30 yrs.If you can't find it I will send you a rod. If you can braze you will like it.Earl In Illinois
