The actual #3 "bearing surface" of the block and cap are much worse

that they are THAT common, but I'm going to see if you can find

I'm afraid I'll have to source one of those short (read $$$) timing
chains. Since the engine was free, maybe I can make some $ back at the
scrapyard!! And the machine shop shop felt sorry for me when they sae
the damage so they didn't charge me for the hot-tank. Right now I'm
only out some time.
