Default SLP Header Question....

What would cause the emmisions post that come off the top of the headers to crack at the base, above factory weld? They look like a stress cracks but how? Last I new I wasent swinging from em...LOL.... Anyway just wondering if I should just have the crack rewelded or have them cut the tubes out and fabricate new ones in? :confused:
