Bingo! Looking at the breakage- how fragile that old casting was- I regret starting the project with it. A billet would be the way to go.
I've decided to build the engine as a 91 c.i. two-cylinder (#1 & #4) and drop down to H/BFL class. That will only require some crude TIG welding to close up the water jacket in #2.
