Not yet seen a cracked manifold over a good engine mount.  So far the score is 100% - fit a good engine mount, make sure it's
protected (Type 85 - heatshield, Type 44 - air duct) and your manifold won't crack.
Solve the right problem - don't mess with exotic fixes for the symptoms without dealing with the cause.
