If not cracked at the flange and finding a replacement becomes a problem either solder or weld. Torch heat mite cause a hole tho if it is real thin from years of rust.

My first effort mite be to find a moulded radiator hose that would fit over the entire tube part of the inlet and use a hose clamp at each end. Note however that the crack mite increase in length due to vibration. Drill a 1/32 hole or smaller at each end of crack to keep it from growing any longer.
