Help identifying this block
No idea what this is. Serial number on block comes back as a 50hp? It is a 2.4 but I don't recognize these ports.
Block is stamped with a single S

Looks to me like it was sleeved with a horrible sleeve job. Looks to be a typical finger port 2.4 200 sleeves in tha wrong block

All cylinders are the same as far as sleeves to ports. I don't know much about the 2.4's so that would make sense why I didn't recognize it. I'm just trying to determine if the block is even worth selling or scraping. No holes in it anywhere just some scoring on one cylinder. Front half is very nice also.
