I'd say there was too much water in the pan to be condensation. water was above the petcock. Oil that looked like peanut butter was above that but not all the way to the pistons. That might have helped keep the wrist pins from rusting.
The water in the pan maybe had a slight green color but I couldn't say that it was for sure antifreeze. The radiator, I couldln't see any water or antifreeze above the core. I didn't have time to take off the lower hose to see what was in the radiator and what color. The drain plug in the bottom wouldn't come out. Didn't want to twist it off.
The tractor is not at my house, out at my neice's husband's shop 40 miles away. Didn't have enough time to get everything looked at like I would have liked to last night when I dropped the motor off.
My inclination is to swap motors with the donor. There was too much water in the pan and it had to come from somewhere. Either the head or the block is cracked. Guess I answered my own question. At least we can get it running and go from there. Who knows what may be wrong with the other half. :roll:
