i think my manifold has a crack in it.
its a stainless one that has been wrapped. if i was to cut the wrap off could it be welded still on the car or am i best to get it removed?

very loud sort of tapping noise when ecotec is on at cold start up

I think most welders would want it removed, or at least most of it in the area.

I can do it ye, I would rather have it off to make sure it's 100%.
Should not take long, if you bring it off that 10mins if one crack
