I don't get to see inside engines much these days, the car is either too costly to repair and goes to scrap, or we fit a used engine as I did here. We wouldn't normally pull them apart, but we had a kid on work experience, so got him to pull the sump to see if we could find the knock. I didn't expect to see these balance shafts, most have an external belt, chain or gear drive, this is a bit different. I did split the case and it has a couple of gear driven shafts. We suspect a collapsed piston.
