is that Motor gonna be damaged from that BAD oxidizer???
what would signs be- if i go see and look at it (out of state)???

anyone got ideas on what to look for?
Was the trap-ox replaced or bypassed? (it has to be one or the other).

Pretty sure replaced- judging by the looks of it - long skinnier "Foil like pipe"

That's a bypass pipe. The trap oxidizer is a massive bulge in place of that pipe.
