So i am looking for a set of headers to fit in place of the stock exaust manifolds,for a 1985 olds cutlass supreme brougham, with a chevy 305 motor. Anyone know where to get them???

Your local speed shop, Summit, Jegs, etc. Don't get the cheapest ones out there as they may not seal right or fit well. I prefer 3/4 length shorties to long tubes on a mild car as there is little difference until you are using a big cam, heads, etc. You can run 12's on shorties, and until you try to go faster than that, that is all you really need.
Good gaskets such as www.remflex.com and a good cleaning with several light coats of good header paint make headers a great experience on a street car as oppossed to an annoying frustrating bad experience. I agree on the mid length also much less exhaust routing smashed pipes leaks and other problems.
is there anything that is the same length as the original manifolds??? I would like to get away with no cutting to my exhaust i already have.
No luck there. No one makes headers that bolt to your original Y pipe, but some companies make complete cat forward systems. I have one on my car from Edelbrock.
I don't have the original exaust i have duals not sure who makes them they were on the car when i bought it. Could be custom. They are completly seperate run down then both go to the right of the trans, then run out on either side of the rear. But the exaust manifolds are stock same with the connections to the exhaust.
