Drivers rocker had some damage from an old accident so pan was probably damaged too.

I’m thankful it’s never been rebuilt and still has original carb and exhaust manifolds. The distributor had a later date so that was probably swapped at some point. There’s about 69k on the engine. The Muncie hasnt been open either and shifts fine, although I did resurface flywheel and replace the clutch since it’s out.
Knock on wood it’s got a lot of cruising left in it before having to rebuild.
