Thanks for the reply Zed Head. The only thing being offered is the bare block. The machine shop cleaned and checked the critical diemensions and, if memory serves me correctley, did a light hone on the cylinders and crank bores. In other words, it does not need to be machined. Additionally, the flashing was removed by me. The preserving grease is similar to Cosmoline, hard to remove and an excellent rust preventitive. If anyone is really willing to pay for the block, I will clean it enough to make diametrical measurments.
