Common repair this time of year in the northeast. I see no purpose in ebony cleats myself. I also see the bindings are buckled a bit at the end of that one crack so this may not be the easiest re hydrate and glue job....
Looking at the width of the separation of the cracks I wonder what else may need attention? Loose or cracked braces? How is the top? I mean if the back dried and split that badly I would expect the top to not be far behind.
