TD6 (M57) Cracked Exhaust Manifold

[rrturboD]

Identified when car was being serviced, cracked exhaust manifold.
The original manifold is steel casting.

Land Rover manifolds (LKC000370) seem to be like rocking horse poop, and are probably made by BMW as was the original, so why can't I use a BMW (1162 7788 422) part which seem to be readily available?

Is the vehicle tuned?
If so possibly the cause.

Common problem on the M57. It still is one of my favourite diesel engines.
