H22a8 bottom end. As everyone knows these are the better cr blocks. All pistons are b. £200 collected.

Dibs until I get the answers from newkid.
Maybe somebody is going from Edinburgh to Essex?

Sorry for the poor quality. As you can see everything moves freely. Bores are clean. Pistons are a bit carbon'd up but in good condition.

Some service history as per receipts

2/6/17 128379
29/2/16 111435 full honda 12 month
19/9/14 93302

Guy says it was serviced every year an I have no reason to doubt him. Unfortunately that's only receipts that where giving along with clutch, belts and tyres. All at great expense.

After stripping engine down with vanzep I strongly believe someone intentionally cut the belt and broke the cam pulley with a hammer. Why I honestly don't know and don't want to speculate.

Yes it is odd - i was expecting to see some tell tale sign of failure but i cant see anything other than the belt is off and cam pulley was damaged.

Ive cleaned the head up a bit and had a quick look - it also looks fine albeit a fair bit of carbon build up on the valves...

Thank you very much for the video!
I thought there's a crack in 2nd cylinder, but it looks like just head gasket remains:
