ok the part where you hook up the engine and the manifold... its the place where you bolt the manifold up to the engine.. theres three of them the last one broke on the left hand side...

Seems one of the flanges broke off the exhaust manifold. You need to take the manifold out and get a new one, unless that one can be welded back together.
You would be better off with a new one.

take it to a shop and have them just weld it back together... shouldn't cost you more then $20 tops

Or use it as an excuse for headers

+1 haha.

Unless you don't want to spend the money and the pain of an install on headers, then just get it welded back on.
