Looks like I dodged a bullet. This is the left side crankcase half near the main bearing. Other side looks fine. Have you guys seen this before? Ideas as to cause?

It is a curiosity. I think the bearing is the original, because this is the first bottom-end rebuild. I did have a motor mount failure at the front, and ran it an entire heat race with the motor vibrating like crazy. Ran fine and have run it for 2 years since that incident.
The cracks don't go all the way through, however there are similar cracks on the outside (but in a different spot).
Just wondering if anyone has seen this before. Just a bad case of a bad case?

| I'd say ice but water shouldn't be in there. |
