If the chain isnt hitting I wouldn't worry about it for now you know its there and can't be suprised if something happens but If you dive into this there will be a ton of while im in theres that will pop up.

The plan is to run this motor for as long as I can, then do a 368 or even a stroker if funds allow. I bought the car with high miles (188k) with the intent of needing to do a motor in a month, a year, or 3 years... A bit of a gamble, perhaps, but the price was right.
Since there were only a few pieces in the pan, it looks like the amount of material that would have been created when that one-inch-long end section was broken off... so I'm inclined to assume that the other strips are intact.
