Check autoatlanta.com diagrams and you should be able to get part number and cross reference number at ecs or do a search for best price.

Clean it well, sand and use epoxy and fiberglass mat. I do have a few laying around if you really want to change it.

The part number your looking for is 99611061870. We shouldn't have a problem getting it, but its going to take a 4-7 days depending on where it comes from. So if you can't find a used one, Click Here for the link. Keep us updated

Wow - just had mine in for various boost leaks, had to replace my intake manifold as well.
Hairline crack, showed up as the area heated up - tough to find. Had to replace the part, about $400 for the part, engine did not need to be dropped. Shop said this was a very rare failure....maybe not!
Also replaced all of my intake manifold sleeves and clamps. I believe you have to be very careful as to how the manifold sleeves are clocked during reinstall.
Good luck.

Uhhh - how is there a huge hole in it?

I forgot to add - My shop said that the manifold part is the same exact one used in NA 996s - so if you were looking to pull a part, you can look at a wider variety of donors - not just Turbos.

its plastic, the more you heat it up the more brittle it gets, and with it pressurized and vibration constantly its bound to happen sooner or later.
