All you would have to do is look at the broken part. If there is carbon buildup anywhere on the part, I would not expect him to pay for a manifold. If it was shiney all around the break, I would expect him to fix it, for free. If he refused, well, lets just say that it would cost him more money to NOT fix it, than it would have if he had admitted to his mistake and done the right thing.
