    If just cracked,i'd wrap it-
    if broke,i'd sleeve a smaller pipe in then wrap.,
    be short term only,mind...2nd might be re-strictive.,
    layered tin cans + jubilee clips can be a short term as well,though you may have to create 'steps' if you're dealing with welds or ridges.mk.

    use an actual welder, or buy an exhaust, a quick bodge is NOT a solution, its bad for your engine to have a leaky exhaust
