Not to worry, "it was designed in the U.S. and the tooling is owned by a
large U.S. manufacturer." That is some of the ugliest "stainless steel"
that I have ever seen. They make a number of statements that are apparently
supposed to imply better welds like "high temperature color patterns near
welds" and "wide surface weld patterns used in joint areas for supurb
strength" (note the innovative spelling). Maybe someone with more welding
experience than I have would want to comment on the "strength through
ugliness" principle that seems to be at work here.

I don't see a problem with repairing your existing manifold and saving
a STACK of money!
