Question Cracked manifold pipe

Hello all,
My 1994 Totoya truck (64,000) miles flunked pa state inspection for the 1st time since I bought it new. There is a crack in the manifold pipe where the 4pipes come together. I do not off road or abuse my truck am I am wondering if the welds just break over time. Last year, the dealer installed a new muffler and tail pipe, and I was wondering if them banging around on the pipes could have caused this, or is this something that just happens. Thanks in advance for your repsones.

You can try taking the pipe to a welding shop and see if they can TIG weld it...not a muffler shop nor dealership. Yes, the welds fatigue and crack.
