A mechanic said that the cracked manifold on my beetle is a design flaw thats why i have to buy a new one instead of a used one is this true? I would like to spend less of course. What you think?

What is your question?

Glad 2.0 1999 vw, 110,000 miles on engine. First is it worth it to fix? Second can a used part be used like off eBay or from the pick apart? Exhaust manifold is broken at one headpipes
