cracked manifold

I have a significant exhaust leak at the back of cylinder 6. I'm not sure if the manifold is cracked or not but I was wondering where the manifold commonly breaks?

On 12 valves one of the ears at #1 or #6 is were it usually breaks.
24s usually crack in the middle underneath.

That's the head or the worst damage from a shrinking exhaust manifold.
