Just got the scoop on my 292 castings after being cleaned and magged. Posted G heads are great, crank is great, one bearing cap is toast (photos - 2 cracks), and there's a small crack on my block just below the rear main seal (photos). Also looks like this area was treated with a JB Weld type goo at one time. Should I use this block, and if so, how best to treat my crack at the rear main seal groove? The rest of the block is good and is .040 at this time. What would you do if this was your baby? I outlined the cracks in red below.
