Malcolm Towrie Having worked on engines like this...I would say this was a Prop Strike.... Dump the Clutch ...sort of incident. If it was engine oil trapped in the lower cylinders...we would have seen seen bent rods...And there are none. Unusual to have the balance end of the crank be broken off like that.
