Mixing Elbow Question and Crack (Dont Know the Name)

The cast iron elbow that mixes the water with the exhaust on my Yanmar 4JT2-te has a crack on it about 3 inches long. It is not leaking but I am worried. The crack has moved 1/2 inch in the last 300 engine hours. Should I stop drill it.. It is light grey and has big exhaust hoses coming off it. Can not remember the name. Advise is welcome on what to do with this crack. Thanks James
