Well, looks like the other block I've got is an ME, with the 373M
mechanical head.  Am I correct that the ME does NOT have oil squirters?

The bore on this one LOOKS like it's out of round, the front edge of the
piston is all worn off too.  Very little ridge at the top, maybe I'm
imagining things - this is the one that was burning massive amount of
oil..  Gotta drop the engine, and then check the pistons, etc.

Head gasket however, looked fine and the head looked good.  Obvious
milling ridges - assuming this is NOT how it came from the factory?

Guess I'll bring it in to the shop anyway...

Will.
