cracked exhaust manifold

cracked exhaust manifold
need some help from the experts, We just installed a reuild long bolck in a 06 f150. its the 5.4L. used new exhaust manifold hardware and gaskets, torqued the studs and nuts per the specs. runs good, no codes but we have a slight surge, about 25-30 rpm, most noticeable at about 1700 rpm. with the code scancer in it we see a variation in the rpm, the short term fuel trim and the o2 sensor values. we noticed a crack in the right side exhaust manifold, near the rear, on the top. would this cause the surge problem. how can this be fixed. i have a mig welded but dont think it will work on cast. can it be brazed or is there some other way to fix.
We are open to any ideas.
