VHT seems to work on exhaust manifolds. It is specifically designed for the exhaust temperature. It does turn color and become dull but does not burn off.

I have found some burning of standard paints on an engine next to the exhaust manifold. There are some engine paints that are rated for a higher temperature than standard paints. I use those engine paints, if available, on cylinder heads and oil pans, wherever the temperature gets over 200F.
