Exhaust leak

Exhaust leak
I have a 95 XJR . I took my CAT to a exhaust shop told him I need a new exhaust , after being floored by the cost of that , he notices a exhaust leak at the Manifolds . He said he could weld it . I told him no way Ill replace before I weld IRON . I ordered 2 manifolds and gaskets . I took the heat shield off and both are cracked in the center WTF !! Do the supercharged motors run that hot ?? is this normal to have happen ?? My thought was a sudden thermal change like a puddle of water ? Or maybe the guy that owned this before me ran the **** out of it !! Any thoughts ?
Thanks in advance

It's for an EGR pipe....which not all of the cars have. I threaded the hole and used a pipe plug. If you don't have the stuff to do it any machine shop can do it for you in just a few minutes if you catch 'em at the right time.
