CB750F2 .... silk purse from a sows ear.
SumpMagnet:
Hmm...I dread to ask what happens if that leaks oil.... I suppose it's just splash lube there, but the rubber seal is pretty firm. Don't know if it is up to the job of sealing. But I suspect the solution requires handing over cash for a good used item in the hope that it is in better condition....

Typical looking USA wheel on the cam chain tensioner, chewed ;)
Wait until you get to the oil pump ;D
SumpMagnet:
I guess the oil strainer is where all the missing bits of ...well...everything... ends up. Bits of crusty camchain tensioner, bitsof o-ring, bits of gasket goo, bits of whatever fell in there. At least I know the pump was still working as the top end was wet with dirty old oil, and the restrictor oil jets were clear. I hope.
At least with the head and barrels off...the motor has got to the point where I can lift it up onto the bench without risking injury.....so I can wrestle with the chewed screws on the side casing and open up the bottom end.
In the meantime, though.,....I found a use for that old seat. Makes a perfect place to park my backside while I was working on the top of the motor.
Bryanj:
Guessing from the pistons i would guess you need new guides as well as maybe valves
