Cracks like those can and do cause water leaks down between the sleeve and the block casting into the oil pan. The situation is now a decision between getting a replacement block, or having it bored to receive a repair sleeve, then rebored to accept the normal dry sleeve, or thinner sleeves to make it displace the same as a Super M. If it is already using the Thin sleeves, no issue doing one hole, but it does require tear down for machine work, as noted in the other post. A very modest sanding of the cast bore is OK, honing is almost never done as the bores are often looser than desired when refit with sleeves. Sleeves need to be chilled and block warmed , then usually driven in with a block of wood after slipping in 1/2 to 2/3 of the way pretty easily. A different block might be a better option in this case. Jim
