Engine is at 170K right now. Cross hatching was visible in the area under the carbon ring (hard to see on the pic).
Indie plans to replace all gaskets on the mating surfaces...especially the lower timing chain cover. He didn't say anything about the EGR tube, but I'll mention it.
He also inspected various wires and connections and will be replacing the brittle ones.
Water pump was replaced at 120K...so far so good.
