Whats that hole in the exhaust manifold.

The little one on the rear rotor. And, if the manifold is a little damaged around that how bad is it/ can it be fixed. Other than that, the manifold is perfect with no cracks.

Cheers,
Dale

Are you talking about the thin slit that's the opening for the precontrol flow?

I can't remember, it's either for EGR or air injection. If it's ratty looking, that's no big deal at all - don't sweat it, just leave it be.
