Looks normal? The engine itself looks brand new... minor flaking on the underside... there was a nest of mices in the boat so they chewed things here and there... I read one article about a mouse getting inside the engine through the exhaust and causing rust from its urine to seize the engine... ever hear of that??
So the exhaust manifold looks ok?? I was about to order new gaskets.. I ordered that socket that you guys had the link to summit racing.. I hope it was the right one...1/2"? I will take some more pix and post... between electronics , rod lockers , lights new custom seat and complete trailer rebuild.. I am 6 months $4500k into this and there is no turning back... this motha effer is going to run one way or the other !!!....

1/2" is the size of ratchet or breaker bar that fits it... If it was the sbc socket then it will work.

Don't worry about mice... Just get oil in there and work it back and forth

Go to Oriley or autozone... You can rent one for free.... You pay a deposit and then get the deposit back when you return the tool.
