Default Engine sits too high for hand crank engagement

A friend bought a 1930 Roadster that hasn't been started in four years. He tried to insert the hand crank to see if the engine would turn over but the hand crank won't fit into the nut on the front of the crankshaft. The front of the engine sits too high for the hand crank to engage the nut. When you look through the hole in the bottom of the radiator shell it appears the engine is about 1/4" too high. It appears to have the original style front mount. Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas of what could be wrong? TIA.
