Message	the oil squirter was completely sheared off where the con rod went. The girdle (as you can see) was completely destroyed. The block is badly gouged on two pistons and likely has more stress fractures (besides the hole, etc). The crank is also trashed. Four con rods and five pistons look to be OK, but I may just end up getting a short block from SGP or elsewhere (since I don't even have a block or crank to work with at the moment). The heads appear to be fine, only two very slightly bent exhaust valves on the #4 piston. I think I can have those replaced locally.
