You seems to have a 2.5L NA with cylinder deactivation instead of a 2.5T turbo like the OP has. The cracked cylinder head happens on this engine and it’s a design flaw not the casting imperfection. Mazda modified the original cylinder head to accommodate additional components for CD. The cracked area near exhaust manifold has only 2mm thin wall which could crack and leak oil at certain point.

2.5 NA Cracked Cylinder Head with Oil leaking...How common is this?

If your 5-year / 60K-mile powertrain warranty has expired, you’re under the mercy of Mazda North American Operations and hopefully they’d help you a bit on repair cost which’d be expensive. Read that long thread so that you can understand more on cracked head which is a design flaw, not a casting imperfection. Once you have more knowledge on this problem, you may have more weapons to talk to MNAO directly.
