Bad news! Check it out!

Is this going to effect the engine when I torque the heads down? It isn't broken into the water jacket.

If you look at the pictures of the engine when I dropped off the heads you can see that the alignment pin bore isn't broken (you might not be able to tell very easily on the small version, but I can definitely tell on the original). I guess I should call the machinist and tell him. He said it was warrantied for 90 days since I used his parts; however, I don't even know if there is a way he can fix that. Short of giving me a new block, or one that he has at his shop.
