I did a temporary repair but it isn't filling me with confidence. I don't use the car a lot so I'll just wait for the gasket set to land and swap the manifolds. Besides, not having the car is getting me off my ass for a bit of exercise!
I'm thinking of possible ways to reinforce the connector on the "new" manifold and (hopefully) avoid ever having the problem again.
The manifold has been lying in the shed since I bought it over two years ago. I hummed and hawed about buying it (£200) until I started tallying up the value of all the bits attached to it.
