I did a 9n manifold by brazing, and it seems to be ok. The crack was on the back side and about 2"x 1/16" wide. I drilled the ends, and v'd all the way thru; also cleaned up 1/4" on both sides of the crack. I heated the general area with the torch before using filler rod.
If you tractor isn't running right and the exhaust area of the manifold glows red, then maybe the brazing could melt, but under normal circumstances, it won't.
If you try to repair it yourself and are not successful, you've lost a couple of dollars in gas and rods. Unless it's a rare manifold, you don't have much to loose.
