Bought a 200 that was only supposed to need paint. Front seal was leaking so I just pulled the front casting off the block and got a bad surprise. On the left side the top of the bolt hole on the casting top bolt was broken. Then I took out the bottom bolt and the engine casting, where the bottom front casting bolts up, was also broken - a piece maybe 3" long or so just fell out.
I suppose on the bright side, if the front seal hadn't leaked I could have wound up with the front end falling off.
Any ideas would be appreciated. I assume maybe the casting could be welded and be OK as it's only the top part of the loop. But how about the casting that broke off of the engine? Do I need to look for another engine? Not sure if the tractor is worth trying to save. Wiring is shot (had a nail for a fuse). Does have new tires and hydraulics, two point hitch etc.
