It"s not uncommon for these engines to have cracks. There are several fixes IF the crack has not propagated down to the O-rings at the bottom of the sleeves. My original engine had threaded tension rods that passed through dr rilledholes in the block between the cylinders that were held together with a coupe of nuts. It pulled the cracks together and did not allow coolant leaks. The other way is to take it to a shop that does furnace brazing and have it repaired. It"s not cheap but it has the added advantage of stress relieving the block and the block is then align bored as part of the proceess. The price is competitve with the price of the good used block. The engine in my TO-30 has had that fix.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
