Default Damn header broke?

I was driving home today from dropping my gf off at work and suddelly heard something that sounded like an extreamly bad exhaust leak. I pulled over and popped the hood, and there is a hole about the size of a quarter on PS going around the EGR tube. Now how the hell does that happen?

I thought about putting some JB weld on it since the egr tube was still laying in there. Or maybe hooker has some kind of warranty? Cause it is obveously poor craftsmanship
