I bought a spare engine to overhaul or use parts from for my main engine.
It was reasonably cheap and you can see why from these photos! The tappet covers have been chiselled so hard that one has a hole in it. There's an awful lot of orange silicon gasket on the crankcase join.
I wonder what horrors I will find inside? 😳☹

Greg65:
Ohhhh, what horrors lurk inside? If it’s just chiselled tappet covers and a bit of orange gunge on the oil filter and joints , ho hi, you’ve got a great spare. Have fun.

That one on the right looks ok - hopefully you didn't end up buying the world's most expensive used-but-good tappet cover...  ;D

Just take the cam cover off, you will know immediately if its a boat anchour
