WTF? Is that a hole in the header? How did that happen? I would just upgrade to some nice headers.

It's a mystery to me. I thought I had a leaking header gasket, opened the hood, and found this gem. The EGR tube mount is still intact.

The problem is that these already are the nice headers, lol - ARH 1 7/8s

They are great headers, It appears to have been used with a 'blockoff plate' at one time.

Regardless of past usage we are willing to fix the header, but the owner is trying to avoid the down time/removal of the part.

To reiterate, ARH offered to repair the header and ship it back to me free of charge.
