We have a Marco woodburning fireplace which we use extensively. Noticed the rear brick panel is cracked. I contacted a Marco dealer and the rear panel would cost over $100, plus shipping. Is there some sort of firebrick patch I can use to fix it myself?

Expansion and contraction would likely cause patching material to fall out. $100 for the panel is less expensive than buying a new stove and a whole lot safer.
