Ford Lehman hole in exhaust manifold

1977 80hp hole in manifold just where the elbow flange connects to the manifold...1" x 1/2 inch ...1) can it be welded (caste) ? 2) I have the basic manual but no instructions on repair of dismantling. unlike a car there are cooling hoses and pipes from the tranny and oil coolers attached to the elbow and manifold and other sources. I assume this all has to come off?. no water leaks from the hole...only exhaust . Any ideas about removing bolts that have been there since 77?...any other advice is appreciated. pic attached
