I’m having trouble finding a good manifold that fits for my 2.5. I saw a troubling crack along the side of the manifold, and from what records I could find, it looks like it’s the original one with about 300k on it.
RockAuto doesn’t have anything, and the only one I could find was some doorman one, and the reviews aren’t that great
And another issue i’m running into is that a lot of these are only listed for the YJ’s and such, and nothing for the XJ.
Any help?

This is the one I find everywhere. It looks like the Doorman one, and doesn’t look anything like the one I have. It also looks too bulky to clear the intake.
I’ll keep looking, but it seems every one I find looks like this. And on a side note, what is the pipe that’s sticking out on the right hand side of the picture?

The pipe on the heat shield is usually and intake heater for carbs but I'm not sure why it's there for the fuel injected years.
Whats the manifold you have look like.

It looks like that, minus the heater tube and the heat shielding, and it doesn’t have that big of a flange at the end
