No. I do not see 4140 on it anywhere. I do see 13022 on one of the counter weights though. I did a search and found a kit with a XXX13022XXXX part number that was a cast crank. Im hoping this is not the crank from that assy.

unfortunately I can not find any kind of line anywhere. I did stand them both up and tap them lightly with a hammer they both make the same High pitched ring. I really cant tell any difference between the two. Im wondering if way back when I ordered my first cast crank I received a forged one or if this time I ordered a forged crank I got a cast one.

Call Eagle and tell them what it says on it.
My original motor had a :forged" crank in it.. but after I broke it in half, and pulled it... I called EAGLE.. and they said my original motor builder screwed me....

Is there a casting line on it?
Forged items are beaten into shape which makes them much stronger.
Cast is poured which means they are weak.
Here is a good read.
