I have a nice looking Ford script exhaust manifold but as usual it's warped who can straighten them

How much is it warped? If it's ¹⁄₈" or less it can probably be fixed. If it's ¼" or less, maybe. More than ¼", it's likely to crack.

How to check.

Unless you want to do your own, in the long run it would be less cost to buy a new one. Google the Tulsa Model T Club. They have information on doing this job. I have done one or two. If I were to do this job it would be cash up front and no promises that it would turn out, and NO I am not offering.

Straightening them is hardly worth the effort. Agree if more than 1/4" warp likely to crack. Cast iron does not like to be bent
