Exhaust manifold 120B

Question
Went for a ride, and the 36 120b sounded a little loud. Open the hood to see if something was coming loose so I did not get stuck on the road. Exhaust was tight but I found I have cracked my exhaust manifold. Did not seem to be running hot in previous rides. Manifold does not look cooked.

As I am new to Packard, is this something that happens?
just old or something

Good news that when it heats up the leak and noise disappears. I can still use it till it gets cold the I will fix it
Thanks for your time
Will
