Cracked exhaust manifold S4 TII

Well as the subject line says, I have an 87 TII and the exhaust manifold is cracked just forward and below the output flange to the turbo. I tried to repair this about two years ago (stick weld w/nickel rod) and it seems to have cracked again in the same place. Is there an after market option that uses stock positioning? Or does any one in the NYC/CT area have a good one FS?
