Default Cracked manifold

Is it common for the 2.3s exhaust manifold to completly destroy themselves. I drug home the newest addition to my Mustang family yesterday, 1993 LX coupe, knowing that the manifold was cracked as well as having a split coil.
I just wanted to know if there are any areas I need to check before spending time and money on replacing these items.
The o2 sensors guts were also M.I.A..
I suspect that the catalytic converter is not serviceable but not 100% sure on that yet.
Any advice would be appreciated
I intend to do a compression check this weekend.
