being cracked helps, but mine was even throwing a code.....
the cat is built into the header, so yes, they will replace it. Actually, the cat was what was throwing my CEL off in the first place.....

however, when they replaced my manifold, my o2 sensor was fine, so they didn't change it out....

this thread has proven itself useful
Just to let you all know. I had called American Honda @ 800-999-1009 about our cracked manifold on our 99 civic DX. Had a Honda mechanic verify that the manifold was cracked. The next day I got a call from the case manager and said that Honda would take care of it 100%. We have 103,000 miles on the car. We have an appt this Friday to get it changed out. Outstanding service from Honda.
Just wanted to say I got mine changed as well, for free. Turned out great, I made the appointment, then dropped of the car before I went to Cancun i July. Then I got back and was surprised that they changed the oil as well for free! Honda ia good when they wanna be (or pressured, lol)
