Olds engine parts worth keeping?

Cleaning out the garage making room for next phase in our project and just don't feel right about throwing out some items?

1969 455 block cracked between 3 & 5 cylinders in water jacket. I'm using as a mock-up block for the moment but have another 455 block that I'll be using.

1969 455 crank shaft (automatic) - I'm going with Eagle stroker crank and rods with our build.

Set of 8 rods and pistons which look pretty rough to me.

Pair of SB and BB stock exhaust manifolds (I don't recall which is which)

I just hate throwing stuff like this away. Actually, I'll take it to a metal recycler.
