it is possible to weld cast iron .. not easy but possible .. I have also brazed a plate between inlet and exhaust .. needed a gas axe to keep it hot enough..

I know several welders that have failed due to the extra carbon in the crack even when ground back to fresh cast.

There are many for sale on ebay. You will need to be creative in your searches though.
