Step one in inspecting the block, etc was the removal of the balancer.

In order to hold the crank still, I placed a large head screwdriver in the crank position sensor hole, the crank has several notches in it, used for holding the crank still during cam timing. There is actually a tool that is inserted here that snaps into the notch and holds the crank still, but more to come on that. After locking the crank I removed the crank/balancer bolt.

Then removed the balancer:
