Plan for the failure. What will things be like when the project fails? How can you best position yourself in the wake of the failure? Take the steps required to see to your own future. Do not get caught up in owing anything to your manager or your employer. Your manager transferred a failing project to your group. He is more responsible for you having this failure hang over your head than you are. To your employer you are simply a resource, not a person. Do not give them the loyalty you would give a deserving person. It will not be reciprocated. In a world where all employees are basically extended freelancers, you need to put yourself first. Failing to plan is planning to fail.
