Default Need help with my Intake Manifold

I have a 2007 F150 4.6L V8 XLT. The intake manifold cracked and leaked coolant all over as they tend to do with this model. I'd really like to replace it something other than a cheap plastic Dorman manifold, but that is all I can find. Can anyone recommend a better option? Could I use a manifold meant for an older 2-Valve Mustang? Any help would be appreciated.

Not really my area of expertise as I don't own a 4.6 currently, but I did find an UIM that utilizes an aluminum coolant passage:

I'm not sure if it will as it only lists "car" 4.6s but in my personal experience that point is moot on Ford Engnines.

My V6 Mustang is running the intake manifold off an old V6 Windstar with a throttle body pulled from a 4.6 Crown Vic. My F150 is running a Boss 302 intake pulled from a Mustang Boss. Same truck also has the option of running the larger Cobra Jet intake. So for me it'd be a modular engine part to a modular engine. I'll let the guys here that have these engines correct me if I'm wrong.
