I havent had a machine shop look at it or disassemble yet. But its not a simple crack. Its a hole the size of a softball, with cracks running up to the top and most likely going to the top of the deck and even inside. This is the worst i have ever seen an engine without being blown. It literally looks like someone shot this thing at point blank range with a shotgun. I took the oil pan off just to check the internals, and the cracks continued inside and along the base of the cylinders. I can verify it but i think this engine was parked with pure water in it. No way antifreeze could let this kind of damage happen. As for the Main caps i will save them an any part that im unable to use. Thank for the tip =)
