I would have told the mechanic to extract the remaining screw so that it can be functional and if he cannot, the mechanic should be responsible for the damage, no matter what the mechanic claims the previous owner did.

worse comes to worse, you can try using a screw extraction tool and if that doesn't work, you can do the last resort of drilling it out and using a heli-coil so you don't have to replace the manifold.
