If you don't have any luck with finding the part or a used turbo, you might try breaking it down and taking it to a weld shop. They may be able to save it for you by drilling out the bad section (so the crack doesn't spread), heat with a torch to get red (so the weld will penetrate) then stick weld.

You should able to find a turbo or exhaust housing at a junk yard.

Looks like a sprue or riser from the casting. That's a first for me.

Find your friendly local Cummins dealer, They may have a housing from a core they could swap out (or any other various turbo shop).
