Was looking for serial numbers under the crud and found this - its under where the starter mounts:

 

Doesn't look good - is this block toast?

No way - would that hold? JB weld is my favorite stuff in the world, that would be the best thing ever.

Didn't notice it in your first post. Did it look like it has been leaking any oil? May want to see what it looks like from inside.

It wasn't running when I got it, hadn't run in a while so couldn't tell by looking at it.  Turned by hand but had no compression, was hoping it was a head gasket or stuck valve.  Got the head off, gasket was fine, the piston and cylinder look good, fair amount of carbon on the valves but neither are stuck.  Haven't been able to get the case open yet, working on that.

Have used JB weld on cracks like that before and it worked fine. Cleaned very well roughed up with coarse emery cloth (might not be necessary) but thought

that would give it some touth to grab on to.

does the piston go up and down when you turn it over?

Yes - and the piston and the bore look good
