done a very good repair on them and added a bit of weld to make them stronger as it went on the original welds

is there a photo of the whole assembly, as well as just the weld (to show overall condition)? How much use have they seen? I thought the rcm ones were quite resistant to cracking..?

Not at all, I have seen 2 RCM headers Crack one of RCM's rotated up pipes, on a mates Type'R. had to have that tig welded.
