Block is presently with engine machinist. To the naked eye prior to crack testing would be hard pressed to pick it up without the crack detecting process i feel.
Hence need to have block checked both crack wise and pressure tested where it also failed. This has been the good advice passed on from this Forum.
I thank all for input as always.
