wow.... mental note, if you have a head crack, you weld it up and it cracks again, this is what's in store if you keep trying to use it! What else did it take with it when that happened... I can't imagine the engine bay's too pretty after that.

With the way that looks in the photo it's hard to see, but I assume that happened when it was running yes? I could just see fuel/coolant/etc.etc. spraying all over the place making for a big mess.
Lucky it didn't take anything else with it, because that could have been alot worse.
Scrap alum, it's geting good $ these days, apparently you have a couple chunks that are about 40 lbs a piece or so LOL.
