looks like someone welded a piece of steel pipe onto your I-6 exhaust manifold. They were trying to make a heat stove setup.

That's a strange setup, maybe it was for some type of farm equipment. I've seen some really weird stuff on ranches and farms. BTW steel can be sucessfully welded to cast with nickle rod.
