Good. I see that your benzene molecule is not much magnetic,
that is good as well.

A priori I'd say the magnetic moment of 4.5 m_B at Mn atom
is not necessarily wrong, but it indicates a very small coupling
of Mn with the neighboring organics. If not physical,
this could be due to a too short basis –
which is minimal (SZ) in your case, anyway.
Take a DZP, as advised, with a not too large PAO energy shift.

As you have a different calculation at hand which you trust,
I'd in your place compare the details – where the bands / peaks
in the density of states are, what are their widths
(as there must be a dispersion along Z).
Do not concentrate just at the magnetic moment.
