That's basically a cast piece that divides your intake port into two ports. No idea why it's there, but I can tell you that you don't want that just hangin' there. It could break off and be ingested by your engine, which would probably cause a hell of a lot of cylinder scratching, probably break your piston and maybe even damage your rod or cause seizure. I'm not sure if it's safe, but I would ask around to see if it's safe to just grind that middle bar out. If that will ruin something, I'd look into getting someone to TIG weld it solid again.

Are you sure that's a CRACK and not just a casting seam?
