Yeah mate they will be able to be welded. Just take it to a local exhaust shop & they should be able to help you with it.
Not sure what it will cost as that is up to them/how big the crack is.

its about 10cm long and its in an open spot so not a hassle to reach and its not like a big split its just like a hairline crack.

If you walk in with the pipe in your hands they might not even charge you, or ask for $10-20 tops for it.

Fitted to a car... different story.

Find a performance shop that makes their own headers from scratch or a shop that can TIG weld
If it's not done properly it might split again beside the repair weld edge

Also tell them you don't need a receipt for the work done . Might get it cheaper for a cashy

Walk in with the header in 1 hand and a slab under the other arm
Ask "Do you work for beer?" (make sure it's a friday afternoon)
