Maybe drive it to a weld shop, pull the exhaust manifold and spot weld? Or...?

It depends on how close to the exhaust manifold mounting surface the hole that [U]may[U] exist would be. If there is a hole, it would have to be TIG welded, a MIG (even with an aluminum spool gun) would not be capable of getting the penetration required. Also, if it is welded in the car, disconnect your ECU to protect it.
